So I don’t really understand why people are still trying to educate others about the problems of closed platforms, algorithms and how they work with silos like threads and blue sky. It’s very clear that people just want to talk to their friends and they don’t care about close platforms versus open platforms, algorithms, or who controls it or any thing of the sort. My advice, rather than try and convince people to move over to an open activity pub enabled platform, just let them do their thing and continue to improve the open social network. When their beloved social media platform goes through the #Enshitification cycle and they’re looking for an alternative because they realized that their platform was out of their control, that’s when you show them your much more mature open social media then it was years ago. In short, if they want algorithms, let them have it over there in a closed platform. Let them go over there. Let’s just continue to improve the space and cultivate this space into something people wanna actually join. #BlueSky #Threads
