bluesky will eventually enshitify like reddit and twitter did and like all social media platforms with investors/financiers behind them always do. (reddit in particular promised not to enshitify at the beginning just like bluesky is promising right now).
be ready to find a new social platform like you had to do with reddit in another 4 to 9 years if you go with bluesky.
even bluesky’s original creator already left bluesky because of the enshitification and created nostr instead to compete with it.

until there’s a star trek like cultural and social sea change; only money can convince the masses
