And this is exactly why I don't trust #Bluesky over #Mastodon. They don't even have a real foothold yet and they're already looking for monetization angles to enrich themselves.
Stick with the truly open, #decentralized protocols, folks.
Bluesky is “prioritizing” building its own payment platform.
Bluesky COO Rose Wang, in an interview with Buffer: It might take awhile before they arrive, Wang says. The planned subscription is also set to launch early next year.

@tilvids @mastodonmigration I go for the principle that if you’re not paying, you are the product. I will pay for bsky immediately. I’d pay here though I seem to have more people engage with me there even though I spent the last year posting the same to both. I believe in paying for things I enjoy. It simply seems less selfish.

@tqwhite @tilvids @mastodonmigration this principle fails miserably when someone like Adobe claims the full rights over anything you make with their software, which requires a subscription over the hundred euros per year. Or Googlle openly spying on your emails to target ads even if you pay them another subscription.
Same with bluesky, you will just go from being a product to being a profitable product. I mean you do you, I'm just warning that these people does not have the code of honor you want to follow, only profit.
