So another drama over on #Bluesky. David Roberts aka Volts wrote a thread about how Bluesky has failed to attain the influence of old Twitter and is just a liberal echo chamber. You can imagine the response this received, but the idea that chasing influence is dependent on a hostile corporate network, be it Bluesky or X, is never questioned. It is a complete surrender of agency and responsibility for actually asserting influence.

@mastodonmigration From what I saw when I had a Bluesky account, it was basically Twitter/X with a different name. I got rid of both quite a while ago.
The crypto VCs get it. The billionaires certainly get it. To assert influence you need to control the 'pipes'.

@mastodonmigration the thing about this 'echo chamber' notion is....we already know what the other side says and thinks, it's rammed down our throats in places like Twitter. They are not a mystery, they are not a puzzle....
