Bluesky from John Gruber, say is nothing like X, and i don't doubt it one bit. You are def shilling it.

Bluesky is closer to Truth Social, but for Blue MAGA, though has non-political communities as well.

I left Bluesky because they hid their VC funding from the community for almost a year and now a partner from the VC is running the show as CEO. Their CTO has also attacked me personally here on HN because I wrote criticism of the new, weak, permissioned data proposal. These are not the folks to bring us better social media. I expect it to linger on like Mastodon, never moving beyond a few million people.

How is it not "like X"? It's practically a knock-off outside of the userbase.
