If you've been sitting on making a post about your favorite instance, this could be a good opportunity to do so.

Going by our registration applications, a lot of people are learning about the fediverse for the first time and they're excited about the idea. I've really enjoyed reading through them :)

I wish he had mentioned Lemmy, but it's understandable that he didn't. Also Bluesky isn't an alternative to big tech, it IS big tech. I wish it wasn't stealing so much of our publicity lately.

But beggars can't be choosers, and we have seen some nice growth over the past couple months. John Oliver fans are the perfect candidates to join the fediverse, hopefully some of them find their way to Lemmy.

Exactly, don't let perfect be the enemy of good. Someone using BlueSky over Twitter is a good thing.

We still shouldn't be doing the dirty work of rich people for them.

We should all be promoting Mastodon over the centralized and corporate-owned bluesky.

There are plenty of naive people on here also shilling bluesky over Mastodon.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Over or in addition to? I haven't seen anyone say BlueSky over Mastodon.

For fuck's sake, no need to say ableist shit like that. I'm just saying I haven't seen it, not that 100% hasn't happened.
