  I don’t necessarily disagree with this in theory, as you gotta have some reach in order to spread your message. I forget the name of the particular situation (people don’t use it because it’s not popular, and it’s not popular because people don’t use it…etc etc)

    Yeah I don’t mind having an account on Bluesky, and will be making one shortly.

  All the developers that care about not being on a Nazi platform have already moved to mastodon or bluesky.

  Those that haven’t yet I’m eyes, can suck Goebbels cock.

    I’m personally planning to set up a bluesky account soon, but running a selfhosted instance doesn’t look easy yet

      There’s no hosting needed for Bluesky, you can just create an account on their website, like any other website

        But then who’s hosting my content and till when they’re hosting it?

      Bluesky doesn’t federate, unless you have billions.

      I’ve heard good things about self hosting with GoToSocial (federates with Mastodon) for single user instances

        Our core problem with mastodon design is the same issue we have with email, eventually big hosters consolidate and they start banning people they disagree with. Now, in contrast you have a full p2p protocol like Bittorrent where you can download anything you want as long as you can find people to download it from. This is the model we’re going for in Plebbit
