Ken White, aka Popehat, a lawyer and popular poster on #Bluesky was recently suspended (https://www.popehat.com/p/a-bit-of-tedious-drama-at-bluesky). Suspension now over, Ken writes:
"...I believe that returning after a suspension carries with it an implicit promise that I won’t post that, or something like it, again. I won’t make that promise, so I won’t return to Bluesky."
Indeed, Bluesky is demonstrating they can extort censorship with the ban hammer. Other users are put on notice it's not you this time, toe the line.

Thanks for dropping in to the Fediverse. The antidote to the Network State.
With all due respect, because you are one of the most important critics of the Network State, why are you not investing more energy here instead of helping them build another tech bro VC 'parallel strategy' platform, when you know better than anyone where that leads? You even wrote a book about it.
Seriously, we could really use your influence to help us build defensible public social media right here.

It will be interesting.
They are deliberately minimizing the difficulty of this mission as much as possible so as to be able to claim a success. The flight will only be 65 minutes, assuming all goes well. It will not complete an orbit. It is just attempting to do what previous launches have done, albeit with a significantly redesigned spaceship.
Still 33 brand new Raptor 3 engines creates an awful lot of opportunity for something to go wrong.

Hey Bluesky users... 🙋‍♂️
Good day to try Mastodon. We won't bite.
Join a server. We call them instances. Here are few great choices:
mstdn.social: https://mstdn.social/auth/sign_up A really great choice! EU based and run by @npub1s20…twmm. Cats!
Vivaldi: https://social.vivaldi.net/about Yes, Vivaldi the browser, but you don't need the browser.
infosec.exchange: https://infosec.exchange/auth/sign_up Techies! Run by @npub1vtx…e7wk
Or just go to https://joinmastodon.org and pick one. It is hard to go wrong.

Turned out they had no knowledge of the subject at all and were confidently arguing nonsense.

Other resources like Cruchbase (https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/bluesky-514d) and Cbinsights (https://www.cbinsights.com/company/bluesky-8/financials) don't include a Series B round and have total invested capital at $23M ($8M seed and $15M series A).
A Business Insider article on January 7, 2025 reports Bluesky was close to closing another round lead by Bain Capital (https://www.businessinsider.com/x-competitor-bluesky-valuation-new-funding-round-2025-1?op=1), but there was never any follow up.
So how much money has been invested in Bluesky, and by whom?

Who owns Bluesky?
The curious mystery of the Bluesky Series B funding round.
Did it happen?
If you look at pitchbook (https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/484831-81) it seems Bluesky closed a whopping $97 million funding round resulting in a $700M valuation in January 2025. VCpedia lists Greylock, alumni ventures and Skyseed as participants (https://vcpedia.com/rounds/5195).
The interesting thing is there are no press releases or other media coverage confirming this financing.

Add to that, these are not by and large trained professional people. They are generally immature racist chuckleheads who thought they were signing up for RL Call Of Duty.

Younger family member who works for a big tech company is here for the holidays. He is working everyday finishing up writing end of year peer review evaluations. Apparently everyone at the company has to generate 30+ extensive evaluations of their coworkers. This is done using a special version of ChatGPT which cranks our long beautifully worded reviews based on a few prompts. These then go to the respective managers who use ChatGPT to summarize the results for each employee. Seriously 🤦‍♂️

This is an excellent point. The type of "decentralized" future Bluesky imagines is very different from what we have here in the Fediverse. To state it simply, Bluesky is not pitching a thousand points of light. Their network protocol does not scale "wide" (many instances) efficiently. Instead they talk about "credible exit", which while it has not been realized at all, comprises a handful of other big enterprises running platforms on AT Proto that you could, in theory, switch to.

Mastodon lost a lot of people, especially Black people, due to harassment here. We need to understand the real technical deficiencies that create vectors for such abuse and get serious about fixing them. In particular, apparently it is possible to use "Followers Only" reply controls and also @ mention someone. These posts are only seen by the followers, and the @ mentioned person. This has been used to harass individuals without it being seen by the general population.

But what was revealed through this whole escapade is the devious way right wing TV affiliates like Sinclair are manipulating our nation's information by corrupting local news and general programming. Fortunately you can now cut them out, and also save a lot of money.

BUT, if you want your posts to be quotable, you need to enable the feature. Go to Posting Defaults in the settings to enable quote posting for your account.
A great deal of thought has gone into the QP implementation to minimize potential abuse of this feature. More info here: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2025/09/introducing-quote-posts/

So... the stock market rallied and the media all cheered because all they heard was lowering interest rates.

Article: Bluesky CEO Jay Graber Explains How the Social Platform Thrives Without Ads
https://observer.com/2025/05/bluesky-ceo-jay-graber-social-media/
"Another key difference... is its stance against traditional advertising. Instead, the company plans to monetize through a marketplace of related services and, eventually, user subscriptions. Its decentralized, open-source structure... serves as a built-in safeguard against the kind of profit-first decisions, like ad-based models, that Graber said run counter to the company’s mission."

Absolutely not. The distinction has always between decentralized and decentralizable.
Whenever Bluesky says they are decentralized they actually mean they are potentially decentralizable. It's the difference between future potential and current reality. It is always more attractive to sell unrealized futures.
Whenever called out on their vaporware marketing it is always, 'we have this or that technical feature in AT Protocol, so what we are selling is potentially feasible.'

Apparently #Bluesky may have now started to take down accounts in obedience to demands by the Turkish government.
This post on Mastodon Arda Kılıçdağı @npub1lwy…h9la from a few hours ago purports to contain a screenshot of a notice by noreply[at]bsky.social informing a user that their account has been "restricted" because "the legal authority in Turkey" informed them it "violates local laws in Turkey".

Do Bluesky users not care that they are relinquishing all rights to any content they post? Or, do they not understand the difference? Does the science community get that everything, any idea, that is exchanged on the platform is no longer proprietary?
Maybe misunderstanding what "public" means in this context, but it seems like it means it can be freely used by anyone for anything. Seems crazy.

Her response to his 'Gish gallop' was perfection. It's very difficult, but she deliberately didn't try to refute his fire hose of nonsense. She shifted the subject at opportune moments to damaging attacks. For example, with the J6 answer, she didn't refute his ridiculous account. She switched to Chattanooga 'Fine people on both sides', which she knows he hates, and became passionate about this horror. And he took the bait over and over again.

So, it seems that @npub1ejx…afye has another take on Peter Baker's, Biden has Parkinson's story.

In short, Biden had a very detailed exam in July 2023 that found no Parkinson's but did identify a movement disorder in his gait. Baker's "Parkinson's expert" Dr. Cannard is also a "neurological movement disorder" specialist who may have been brought in to advise on Biden's gait problem.

Just to state the obvious, Peter Baker is not stupid. He knows exactly what he is doing. And neither is the New York Times oblivious. This is deliberate misinformation.

Oh for fucks sake! Turns out the reason for the visits to the White House by Parkinson's experts was that Biden was signing a watershed Parkinson's awareness bill.
"On July 2, President Biden signed the National Plan to End Parkinson’s Act into law. This is the first-ever federal legislation dedicated to ending Parkinson’s disease (PD)"

Such a BS hit job today from the New York Times. This rag should be renamed the New York Enquirer.
Seems the Parkinsons expert's visit wasn't to examine Biden, and Biden's doctors have repeatedly stated publicly that Biden has no signs of Parkinsons. But Peter Baker finds some unnamed people who've never examined Biden who say they think Biden might show signs of the condition, and the New York Times pushes out this supermarket tabloid headline.
This is getting absurd.
