Spiritually I agree with this take.
OTOH over the past months watching various members of marginalized groups give up on Mastodon due to harassment/instance drama etc, I can see why folks are giving BlueSky a whirl.
To be clear, BS has had its issues with this as well, but people who have high tolerances for online bullshit have been on mastodon and said “no thank you”.
If the “better technology” ends up being “handling harassment” that’s not an abstract conversation. https://sauropods.win/@mike/111000596791845003
