For those choosing Bluesky as their next social media platform, what do you think would happen if Elon Musk offered $1B to buy the company?

Maybe it is a good time to give Mastodon, the Fediverse and truly people powered Open Social Media a harder look.

@mastodonmigration My understanding is that their AT-based federation has been fully live and open (ie not invite only) since February 22nd. So Musk buying BlueSky wouldn't make much difference, you and any number of your friends could remove your account from his node while continuing to communicate with the same circle you were on, much as if Rochko sold out (yes I know he won't!) to Musk.

Really? How many "federated" AT protocol platforms are there?

Everything you love can be destroyed by people with too much money as long as we let people have too much money.
Billionaires and freedom are incompatible.

@mastodonmigration They could go to another PDS, simple as that. Musk buying Bluesky would be no different than Musk being Mastodon.social. Most of the Fedi would be screwed but they’d have the option to go elsewhere. So I’m not sure of your point

@mastodonmigration you’re also missing the bad reputation Mastodon got when Black and Brown folks tried to migrate over. It hasn’t gotten better so it’s absolutely not time to give it a harder look unless you’re one that doesn’t care about Black and Brown people being harassed

@mastodonmigration I tried Blue sky for about a month and just couldn't get into it. While Mastodon doesn't have quite enough people for great conversations everywhere, it does seem like the ones that happen are wonderful.

gm,
Between my subscriptions and Mastodon I get everything I need to know or want to read about.
