@pluralistic is as clear-eyed as ever here, and I agree wholeheartedly with this take on #bluesky:
“Bluesky lacks the one federated feature that is absolutely necessary for me to trust it: the ability to leave Bluesky and go to another host and continue to talk to the people I've entered into community with there.”
Agreed. Once their federation features are delivered and I have either explicitly tested them myself or had someone I trust test the process, I will try BlueSky.
Until then, no thank you.
