Bluesky is a PBC (public benefit corporation) with the mission “to develop and drive large-scale adoption of technologies for open and decentralized public conversation.”

From the start, our goal has been to build a decentralized social network that is usable by the mainstream.

Welcome to all of our new users, and a special welcome to the UK, which had the most Bluesky signups of any country for 5 out of the last 7 days!

What makes Bluesky different? Some key features: 🧵

listening to Jay Gruber discuss Bluesky - we want to build an ecosystem where anyone can particpate in moderation, including third party middleware - a marketplace for sharing apps that help with moderation as a service. Yes - this is such an important aspect of protocol based platforms.

DMs on Bluesky will not be "end-to-end encrypted" until we are able to do some more protocol work.

We have very careful access controls within our systems.

If you're extremely privacy conscious, I'd recommend using Bluesky DMs to share your Signal accounts!

New users, you have to follow WAY more people here for an active timeline than you did on Twitter.

If this place feels dead, you’re almost certainly not following enough other users.

There’s no centralized algorithm that just puts stuff in front of you - although you can subscribe to feeds.

WhatsApp could have built the threads app. In app. Public conversations with everyone on your WhatsApp. No reposts.

When you say bluesky is decentralised, how does it really matter to everyday people?

I think the reality is that 99% of users don’t care about decentralization in any way. they just want a twitter clone that isn’t run by Musk.

The way to build a resilient forum for public conversation that lasts for the long-term is to build it on an open protocol, like the web itself. Services like websites can be built on top, but each can be run differently, and if users can easily move it keeps services accountable to users.

I like how Bluesky feels like 2012 twitter.
