@damon there's a lot more it supports than a simple account redirect. https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/moving/
you're right, everyday people don't care about sites being VC funded until it personally affects them, and typically that's around when the money dries up and the enshittification starts. or it gets bought by someone like Elon Musk or David Karp.
the benefit to the culture is that the fediverse isn't something a rich douchebag can buy. but it's a double-edged sword in that now it's the responsibility of the people running the instances to foster good culture. it's disappointing that there aren't more BIPOC supportive instances, but that can change when more people participate in the community and wall off the parts that want to be bigoted. I don't trust capital to do this until they there's a financial incentive to do so. Bluesky being better here only lasts until another Elon Musk shows up. it's always the end goal of these large tech companies to find someone to hold the bag when it's time for the website to make money.
anyway I can see this isn't going to go anywhere productive. in spite of everything I said, you still seem to think Black & Brown people being welcome on fedi isn't important to me and the people whose opinions I value. you wondered at the Bluesky hate, I delivered as a white LBGTQ+ person that has endured people in my community being insufferable and bigoted in their support of Bluesky.
I'm happy for you that Bluesky can be a place where BIPOC people can enjoy more support, but as a trans person watching tumblr go to shit after being bought out by a transphobic CEO, I promise you that won't last.
