Adobe Gets Bullied Off Bluesky
Adobe Gets Bullied Off Bluesky
It seems the only thing Bluesky hates more than Donald Trump is AI — and Adobe had to find that out the hard way.
You're viewing a single thread.
If one isn't a total nutcase who can pass every left wing social purity test ever devised you will be bullied off of Bluesky. Just like if you cannot do the same in reverse with right wing purity tests on Twitter.
Adobe sucks, but Bluesky is trash as well. Which should have been expected considering it is a Twitter clone.
Jesus Fucking Christ man… is this really how you see the world?
OP’s being abrasive, but I sympathize with the sentiment. Bluesky is algorithmic just like Twitter.
…Dunno about Bluesky, but Lemmy feels like a political purity test to me. Like, I love Lemmy and the Fediverse, but at the same time mega upvoted posts/comments like “X person should kill themself,” explulsion of nuance in specific issues, leaks into every community and such are making me step back more and more.
Spoiler: if you didn't like reddit, you won't like Lemmy.
Counterpoint: There are extremely good reasons to hate Reddit which don't apply here. For example, the Lemmy admins don't regard the users with abject hatred
Bluesky's algorithm is entirely optional and replaceable with user built algorithms
Where you bullied of Bluesky for saying something they didn't like?
Nah, I left before it got that bad when I noticed I was being blocked and put on mass "block lists" with MAGA folk for saying the Democrats are just as much to blame for Trump as the Republicans are.
You think that people blocking you is "bullying"? Nobody is required to listen to you.
Not what I said. But go off.
It's pretty easy in both places actually, just don't talk about politics.
Turns out our Grandparents were pretty damn smart with that "Don't talk about Religion and Politics" rule.
Your Grandparents had a Nazi problem that was never resolved as a result of "Not talking politics". One cannot resolve bad politics or religion by ignoring it until it goes away.
"Three things you should never talk about at work: politics, religion, and seggs." Ageless advice.
And if I were using a work account, I'd agree with you.
Agree that BlueSky is trash, but it's more of a shitlib echo chamber. I agree though that the problem is largely intrinsic to the structure. Public microblogging and its consequences have been a disaster for humanity etc.
Funny you mention that, I was just reading this 2019 article on starbreaker about the hard limits of public microblogging as we've been reproducing it over and over, even here on the fediverse.
It's kind of got under my skin.
