bsky mention 

So I wrote a long post about my thoughts on Bsky being where the party atmosphere is right now, then stowed it because it condenses to this:

Modeling your entire online existence around a single website is terrible, no matter how good the vibes are today. While the vibes in a new places are high, we should carry them with us to smaller communities. And when they sour, we should become comfortable with being digital nomads. That way, when Bsky follows the trajectory of Twitter (or certain Masto instances go dark, etc etc), we can continue to exist and thrive.

Also, let's never repeat the era in which Twitter was too big to fail but no alternatives readily existed. That really fucking sucked.

re: bsky mention 

@Goldkin I've kind of always made a note to have some kind of presence in multiple places, even if I don't have the spoons to be active in all said spaces @.=.@

I would also like to imagine that someone would eventually make a fork of Bluesky (the front-end in this case) itself and spin up an instance of their own, since at least ATProto allows for that sort of functionality, in similar vein to ActivityPub.
