I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about the problems with modern computers lately. The hardware is better than ever but the problem is the software.

Our devices have become time vampires, designed to capture our attention, often at the expense of our mental health.

The deep goal of bluesky is to decentralize the social internet so that every individual controls their experience of it rather than having it be controlled by 5 random billionaires. Everyone thinks they signed up for a demuskified twitter...we actually signed an exciting and bizarre experiment.
