Hi, I am starting the process of closing the blueskyfeeds.com feed service in early July. I am having difficulty dealing with site outages, issues with the firehose, ballooning cloud operating costs, and blocking users trying to 'stress test' with feeds that store every post (you know who you are).

I have a random thought about all of this and Elon. In Walter Isaacson's book (as noted by @davekarpf.bsky.social), he tells the story of Elon constantly going all in. davekarpf.substack.com/p/elon-musk-...
![[Max] Levchin was at a friend’s bachelor pad hanging out with Musk. Some people were playing a high-stakes game of Texas Hold ‘Em. Although Musk was not a card player, he pulled up to the table. “There were all these nerds and sharpsters who were good at memorizing cards and calculating odds,” Levchin says. “Elon just proceeded to go all in on every hand and lose. Then he would buy more chips and double down. Eventually, after losing many hands, he went all in and won. Then he said “Right, fine, I’m done.” It would be a theme in his life: avoid taking chips off the table; keep risking them.
That would turn out to be a good strategy. (page 86)](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cak4klqoj3bqgk5rj6b4f5do/bafkreig6woqndwuq4axxzlrenxxyqwxuy7bqtesncq4cyamjn733g66twy@jpeg)

aint that the rub. "We want a chronological app with no ads just photos!".

I'm not sure what the middle ground is, but I like the ethos behind Foto and hoping they find their feet.

This measures only active users who like/post/follow someone. Paul's number includes people who log into the app/site but do not otherwise engage.

Meta’s feed content is just filling the space between ads
Meta’s army of AI-powered “users” includes this “fiercely loyal mom” who bills herself as the “realest source for life’s ups and downs.”
The account was created in Sept. 2023, and has more than 1,300 followers (although how many may be fellow bots, who knows?).

Whom to trust?
Trust is relative
It takes time to build your established online identity where others are socially verifying you by associating with you with engagement, linking and referrals.
If you haven’t done that, there’s not much any third party can do cost-effectively.
