Bluesky had some controversy when it first came out. Now that it’s been around for a while, I’m curious what the consensus is. How does it compare to Mastodon? Is Bluesky now self-hostable and compatible with the Fediverse?
It’s fine right now still, but given it’s a centralized, corporate-run platform at the end of the day, I’m skeptical of its long-term prospects; what’s stopping the guys in charge of that platform from going turncoat and turning it fully into Twitter 2.0?
Mastodon by contrast of being an open, decentralized platform, has some immunity against the enshittification that will inevitably ruin any centralized platform.

It is Twitter 2.0 The question his will he sell it out like Twitter 1.0 ?
You mean when. When is the question.
I always assumed that was the plan. “We sold twitter for so much $! Let’s do that again!”
