Just a CEO of a hot new social media platform calling its users freeloaders and telling them to stop posting, hm.

#bluesky #SocialMedia

A pair of two posts from Jay Graber, the CEO of Bluesky.

In first, she says "You could try a poster’s strike. I hear that works."

In the second, she replied "Are you paying us? Where?" to someone saying "Yeah but a customer threatening to cancel their service usually gets a couple things accomplished. C'mon, Jay. Shame on you."

@stefan bluesky was never expected to be a serious alternative to twitter/threads, it was ment only as a thing for monopolists to point their fingers at and say that they don't violate the monopoly rules because see, there's this other thing there and we didn't use our might to stop it. If you see it from this angle, it all makes much more sense, don't you think? but yeah, if atproto is to have any life past bluesky the company, I'd say bluesky the service is better off without bluesky the company altogether, especially since we're starting to slowly see some actual, true decentralisation efforts

@stefan How *is* Bluesky funded anyways? I'll never go back to Twitter and bsky isn't awful but I worry about its future.

@stefan @stux @FediTips

Is this the start of another exodus that has many newbies showing up to Mastodon/Fediverse?

Are we rolling out the Welcome Mat?

@KrajciTom @stefan @stux @FediTips @mastodonmigration @Gargron If they can hold off a month or two until quote toots are in a stable release (4.5?), I'd appreciate that. I would like to see the exodus after QTs are squared away so we don't have to hear "wait no quoting here??" from newcomers.

@stefan pretty extraordinary. I mean regardless of what she thinks, to post it like that, is... well extraordinary

@stefan I think it’s interesting that their CEO is actually engaging on this level , and in such an emotional way. Are their fundings running out or something?
