clarifying --> I think twiter is moving the needle on breaking down twitter. I think bluesky might move the needle on getting people to leave. -- nm - 🏳️‍🌈 judge jones 🏳️‍🌈 Jul 5, 07:53 13
- The most pressing need is a "space" for verified company brands to go now, IMO. Treads can be that. -- nm - JaxSean Jul 5, 08:13 2
  - ... they can literally own their own mastodon servers if they want. Can't get more verified than that. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 5, 08:53 1
    - Right, but no one seems to be willing to do that, so maybe a centralized server on the decentralized network. -- (edited) - JaxSean Jul 5, 08:56
- Mastodon isn't doing too shabby. "Mastodon currently has around 12 to 13 million users across the decentralized social network" -- (link) - JaxSean Jul 5, 08:03 2
  - And because it's not a VC-backed or megacorp-backed hypergrowthery, it doesn't matter if it keeps growing month over month or increasing ARR. - Beryllium Jul 5, 08:13 1
    - I mean, who hasn’t said that inner message a few times? -- nm - Qale Jul 5, 08:13
- I'm not sure as it's still invite only and while people are looking for somewhere to go right now they're not open for business. -- nm - Krusty Jul 5, 07:56
- Which reminds me. Imagine being such a thin skinned crybaby that you ruin Twitter over it. -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 07:55
- I was gonna say, Elon broke it. Just no one can decide where to go next. -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 07:54 4
  - if media goes, I think people will go. and I see media moving to blue sky in a more meaningful way than they moved prev to like post or mastodon. -- nm - 🏳️‍🌈 judge jones 🏳️‍🌈 Jul 5, 07:55 3
    - One benefit of Instagram’s Threads is Media is already there. -- nm - Qale Jul 5, 08:12
    - Good to know. I actually haven't heard of blue sky before. -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 07:56 1
      - It sorta belongs to Jack Dorsey and it can be abbreviated to "BS", so I think that says all that needs to be said. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 5, 08:20
