      So is twitter and all the other clones.

      That’s still not an excuse to go with the centralized option when centralization is what put people in this position.

          How is it better?

          If it’s really decentralized, where are the other instances?

            It’s better than X because there’s no nonsense right-wing political propaganda and shitty CEO, and it’s better than Mastodon because it’s more user friendly.

            It is meant to be decentralised, but most people aren’t creating their own instances.

              it’s better than Mastodon because it’s more user friendly.

              This is achieved through centralization. There’s a reason nobody else is hosting their own PDS. You use the bluesky app, on the bluesky website, through the bluesky servers.

              Once you get passed the massive hurdle of making an account (no different than when we all collectively figured out email), it’s the exact same UI and experience.

              So… censorship and not-actually-being-decentralized are your reasons for liking it more?

              shitty CEO

              Err… don’t be fooled. The CEO of bluesky is only in this to make money. If he could do what musk does, odds are he would.

                There’s no censorship the right-wingers haven’t moved to bluesky yet.

                not-actually-being-decentralized are your reasons for liking it more

                Still better than X and Mastodon, so yes.

                If he could do what musk does, odds are he would.

                You mean aggressively lobby for right wing takeover and attempt to influence international governance? I have my doubts
