When I see people criticize something they have clearly not used I get motivated to try it.
Good for you, I’ve never tried punching myself in the balls and I don’t like the idea of it, let me know what’s its like please.
It’s run by a shit stained billionare venture capatilist to make money. It can’t be anything but a toxic shit show, the proof ?, they ball are, so doing the same thing and expecting a different result is insane.
It’s not worth getting this upset about this stuff. That’s my 2 cents.
No thank you.
Why? What’s so bad about blue sky that you don’t like?
It’s algorithmic and run by venture capital. 2 things that made social media the toxic mess it is today.
The algorithms/feeds are easily the best part about Bluesky because they can be custom-made. If you don’t like the feeds provided by Bluesky, you can just make one of your own that displays what you want to see. I use many such feeds.
This has always been the killer feature of the fediverse. Open non-exploitative content algorithms. So weird to see people against it for no reason.
If that’s what you like, use it. Nobody is telling you can’t. Those that prefer non-algorithmic vs algorithmic social media will always be in disagreement, since they are fundamentally opposite of each other.
If you want your timeline to be just a chronological timeline, you can also subscribe to that feed and delete all others. Bluesky isn’t Threads, no one is forcing any algorithm on you that you don’t want, this is part of the decentralized nature of Bluesky.
Also, I don’t think there is a clear line between “algorithmic” and “non-algorithmic” social media. If you use Mastodon with the Mammoth app and its “For You” feed, is it algorithmic or non-algorithmic? If I sort my Lemmy timeline by “hot”, do I not use an algorithm?
