Comment on how did we survive threads earlier this year?

They connected a few accounts this week... but they also launched in the European Union this week, they weren't even out worldwide until now.
But hey, don't you worry, everybody is freaking out again. And if BlueSky ever finishes their own proprietary interoperability protocol and that is made AP-compatible on this end I'm sure we'll have another hipster breakdown.

As far as I know there is no intention to have Bluesky be proprietary in any way in the long run, just the philosophy is different and closer to P2P networks. For example migration is a big element of the design, unlike Mastodon. But at the moment it’s still being built, hence why it looks much more proprietary for now.
