Bluesky does solve a lot of SSBs problems. Both projects can learn from each other. The past can become the future and the present inform the past.
This isn't just on Paul, Jay has publically stated that she doesn't believe users (even powerusers) can be trusted with keypairs.
Jay's unfortunately not wrong about that. Hitting that balance between “so secure even I can't access it anymore” v. “so convenient that cybercriminals can access it, too” is less trivial than a lot of the “just use keypairs” crowd likes to admit — even for those of us with many years of experience working with SSH and PGP keys, let alone people who haven't the slightest idea what a “keypair” even is.
Keypairs are fairly easy to use if you're on a reasonable unix-like OS and if you're not then frankly nothing is easy to use. Unfortunately this does mean that your statement is true for the majority of devices people use to access social media
It can be both.
