Jack Dorsey departs Bluesky board.
Bluesky’s most prominent backer has left its board. On Saturday, Jack Dorsey posted on X about grants for open protocols from his philanthropic Start
“Man with worst beard no longer on board of social media site.”
It's SO bad.
He should start new social media company!
This is the best summary I could come up with:
On Saturday, Jack Dorsey posted on X about grants for open protocols from his philanthropic Start Small initiative.
He wrote that Twitter (now X) was “funding a small independent team of up to five open source architects, engineers, and designers to develop an open and decentralized standard for social media.”
Since then, Bluesky has become an independent public benefit corporation, led by CEO Jay Graber, with VC backing, and it opened to the general public in February.
Dorsey appears to have deleted his Bluesky account at some point last year, though his departure was only acknowledged at the time by a smattering of social media posts.
In addition to dropping corporate news, he’s also weighed in on the beef between Drake and Kendrick Lamar, unfollowed nearly every other account, and posted, “don’t depend on corporations to grant you rights.
This story has been updated with a statement from Bluesky confirming Dorsey’s departure.
