If you've been sitting on making a post about your favorite instance, this could be a good opportunity to do so.
Going by our registration applications, a lot of people are learning about the fediverse for the first time and they're excited about the idea. I've really enjoyed reading through them :)
Yeah BlueSky is a solid side-step. It's still for-profit and not federated but every BlueSky user is one not on X. And a lot of BlueSky's userbase is comprised of particularly influential X users so them leaving is particularly harmful to the ecosystem.
I also think it's funny how the journalists who repeat BlueSkys "decentralized" nonsense thought Mastodon was too weird and technical, and yet are promoting Pixelfed. Not complaining, but it is funny.
