MODERATORS
He was on the board, it's not like it was his project or anything. Imo he wanted to create a protocol, not a platform. "Improve Activitypub" like they always claimed. But then Bluesky realized that they can simply build their own platform and be Twitter 2.0
He should just contribute to mastodon instead.
Its community based so his opinion could be ignored, unlike when he's on a board and his opinion was ignored.
Several of you seem to be misunderstanding. When he says “like Twitter” it’s not in the negative ways you are thinking. It’s in the negative ways he’s thinking. Meaning censorship and being able to ban accounts. He doesn’t want that. Mastodon would have the same criticisms if he commented on it.
Oh right, is that this new "free speech absolutism" I've heard about? 🙃
Unless it is pro-Palestinian speech of course
No shit sherlock
bluesky has a robust moderation system which blocks transphobes, bigots, and racism which is why jack hates it.
So it's like Reddit
Nostr is ultimately the way forward and he knows it. Nobody controlling your identity other than yourself.
Them promoting crypto is fishy. I don't like Nostr.
They only use Bitcoin (optional) which is getting highly regulated.
It seem many here are against it.
Jack is mostly on Nostr, good thing Nostr is more independent to Jack influence.
They built it to be another Twitter.
