Whelp, did mastodon got something out of this screwup?

BlueSky has the one thing Fedi doesn't: a large advertising budget. Hate to say it, but we have lost.

What are you talking about man?

[–] missingno@fedia.io 8 points 1 day ago (3 children)

BlueSky has money. We don't.

People are going from one corporate-controlled social media platform to another corporate-controlled social media platform. You and I both know that's the problem, but to the average user, they're going to go to whatever has a large corporation spending a lot of money to tell them that their platform is the next big thing.

This user is a troll FYI.

I remember putting in so much effort into my MySpace page… and then it was replaced by Facebook… and I had to start over. That’s the only reason why people are staying in the shitter…
