So #bluesky is raising more money, according to Business Insider.@j12t was there an explicit goal of $70/user stated? Lines are never that straight when it comes to valuations, it’s almost always a mix of assumptions. For ex: subscribers can be more valuable than ad eyeballs, pro-tools can diversify revenue, more loyalty from email reach, etc. I’d be surprised if that simple math was actually how BlueSky is thinking about monetization. But to be clear, I really don’t know.

So #bluesky is raising more money, according to Business Insider.@j12t one last comment: making money doesn't always mean "off of your engagement"... there are subscriptions, pro-features, rev-sharing, commerce, and many other models that can support a business. i wouldn't jump to the conclusion that this world will be the same as the legacy social networks.

So #bluesky is raising more money, according to Business Insider.@j12t the most important thing is that the alternatives to closed, toxic social networks survive and the entire space becomes an exciting place for innovation, attracting people and investment. we won't eliminate the walled gardens by fighting success of people and businesses in the open social web. good news: we have choices. if platforms and protocols that give us those choices die, we're in real trouble.

Something we hope @surf and other products work to solve: @Julia summarized it perfectly.Something we hope @surf and other products work to solve: @Julia summarized it perfectly. "The Problem? The rise of the algorithmic engagement-driven social media feed has swamped our feeds with an avalanche of clickbait, ragebait, fake feelgood videos, and all sorts of other distracting, disempowering, and dissatisfying content."
