New blog post!
There's been much consternation over why people chose #Bluesky over the #Fediverse and #Mastodon during the latest #TwitterExodus. It's almost a familiar event that bears repeating every time something like this happens. So I thought I'd take the opportunity to collect my thoughts and speak my mind about it.
I've debated if I should even bother to post this on here at all, because the last time I brought up points of contention it turned ugly real quick. Even now I'm debating if Fedi is even worth all this frustration and effort when hovering over that "Post" button, for this very post fills me with dread of what I'm about to get myself into by sharing this.
I wanted to believe that Fedi had something going for it, but with the way things are going on here, I think it's just a matter of time before it becomes a "You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain" kind of deal. Some key experiences have just left me wary and disenchanted.
If that sounds like I'm giving up on Fedi, that's because I kinda am.
