    He was on the board, it’s not like it was his project or anything. Imo he wanted to create a protocol, not a platform. “Improve Activitypub” like they always claimed. But then Bluesky realized that they can simply build their own platform and be Twitter 2.0

        Its community based so his opinion could be ignored, unlike when he’s on a board and his opinion was ignored.

      @Microw @dumbass No. He wouldn’t be happy with ActivityPub as well. He imagines a social network where no one can perform any moderation. He favours Nostr for exactly that reason. Bluesky has got moderation (just like the Fediverse) - which he dislikes.

          Moderation should always be client side. Server side should not be able to interfere or even read public content

          Yup. I don’t know if I agree re public content, but perhaps private messages should be encrypted, client side, before sending? That issue is one that bothers me about Mastodon.

        So? Like Usenet was back in the day before it became a pirate haven. Then email lists became it. LOL, People tend to ignore the extreme nut jobs regardless. I never saw any child porn on Usenet, but then I didn’t go looking for it. No doubt it existed too.
