Good in that it has reached a critical mass of good people to follow? Probably.
But its enshittification has already began. It's let crypto firms on to its board and taken their money. They're looking at introducing personalized ads and having a subscription service to begin the slow process of stopping the VC cash bleeding.
Because it's not truly decentralized, everything still runs through the main Bluesky servers, this type of enshittification will affect the whole user base.
they also banned their gazan users because of the genocide
Someone reached out to libsky support about that. It’s because many of them share their gofundme links because they have to resort to begging for their lives to strangers on the internet. But rampant link sharing like that triggered their spam filters.
So, I can understand why the libsky algorithm flagged their accounts, but I don’t know if they actually did anything to address that problem.
I've been followed by like 10 accounts with profiles like this out of nowhere and I couldn't tell if they were actual people or scammers taking advantage of the situation. They haven't messaged me or anything but practically their whole timeline is asking for support. Sad situation either way.
here's the link to ask them. (i'm not on twitter so i can't do it myself))
Seriously? Do they have Zionist owners or investors?
