when is bluesky getting grok support

if you’ve uprooted your social graph and migrated to a new experimental platform, it’s worth considering 1) why the product is free 2) how long it can remain free 3) what happens if the assumptions behind 1 and 2 fail to hold

open question: is the plan for bluesky for the company to actually die off, and the protocol to live on through independent fiefdoms? they’re open sourcing mod tools. basically a “build your own bsky” kit i haven’t seen anything on monetization strategy yet. is that a leave it to the people thing?

are they still training ai on the skeets here?

how many mac minis would it take to host this site?

the bluesky client should have a CRT filter option

those upset by the recent mod decision should consider that bluesky is run by a CEO, and a lot of you have been burning through your goodwill lately

once you have paid the dane-geld, you will never be rid of the dane

has jesse singal broken any rules on here or is this a vibes based thing?

in theory the idea of labels like “intolerance” “rude” etc which people can choose to filter is interesting in practice you’re gonna attract a userbase of folks who want to argue endlessly over labeling policy

if you follow then unfollow someone on bluesky, does that record remain in your PDS permanently? aka, is it possible to pull not just current follows but full follow history for a user?

reupping this

feels like red tribe is getting AI in the culture war divorce, which is weird could be wrong on this. but I’m picking up strong signals that anti-AI sentiment is being coalesced into the omnicause

catjak made it over here. nice

there’s a lot of talk on here about what if bsky corp gets acquired by evil corp, etc what happens if bsky corp simply fails to turn a long-term profit? the two main costs of running this app are server costs and content moderation, neither of which go away with scale

fun to see how many of my moots on bluesky have four-letter usernames the real subtle status flex

there should be more games in the “climb a giant Guy and kill him” genre

i for one cannot tolerate conjoined twins

i can’t ever leave twitter. elon pays me way more than $8 a month to stay, and given his character, i have a moral duty to help bankrupt him

i will not pull it, sam-i-am. i will not choose who dies by tram

mastodon will never succeed because it sounds too much like masturbate. there, i said it

bluesky is a good community. one of the best, even. ...but there's an ominous undercurrent I'd like to talk about

when i open bluesky, most of what i see is people talking about bluesky are there small communities in the cracks here? scenes forming? how do i find them

who up pondering their pineapple

everybody loves “be gay do crime” until it’s a sitting congressman

what’s up bskies. what’s happening on the site nowadays

theres been an awakening. have you felt it

can you tell people to sting themselves with nettles on this app

Slowly realizing this app is a Threads rip off

mastodon will never succeed because it sounds too much like masturbate. there, i said it

“what’s hot” was the thing that doomed this place too many people in too close proximity. the appeal of cross-network reach at your fingertips and unlike with threads, no imported macrocelebrities to cluster around one feed, one discourse, surging into itself forever

the optimal amount of spilled juice is not zero

i think the takeaway from bluesky and threads is that any true competitor to twitter will have to be low status. it should be called something like shitpage dot com and look like it was designed in 2003. if you tag the mods in a conversation they should actively bully you

bluesky was a 6-month sociological experiment in egregore self-containment. our tests have concluded. thank you for your participation.

man i kinda hoped this place could have been something

hit like if you can see this. trying to see something

threads be like ❤️ 💬 🔄 ▶️

i open threads and spotify is asking if anyone knows any good spotify playlists. i close threads

the most jacked up thing about the elon saga is he’s still gonna be the guy who puts us on mars. twitter man, destroyer of rate limits. also mars colonizer. it’s gonna happen and people will be furious

twitter is back up. party’s over folks, it’s been fun. see you all next year

blue checks? rate limiting? tucker carlson? you hit your head pretty hard there anon. come on, it’s time to head to the spaceport for our mars flight!

i can read tweets now but i can’t post them anymore. what is going on

what’s the dopamine return here these days. how many likes can you get just for saying stuff
