Have you ever heard of the term federation-washing?

    I don’t think I do… what I explained was, Mastodon is too difficult not because of the interface, it’s because it’s too decentralized, to the point of everyone getting lost in the forest, and no one can find each other within the networks.

    As for Bluesky, while it’s not the best or safest alternative, is way more convenient for networking—the raison d’être of a social network.

      No one is arguing about that. None of that matters when BlueSky turns into the next Xitter. Your social network is irrelevant when you can’t even find those people in a feed full of ads for weight loss supplements and unchecked disinformation.

        I know that. And I do believe Mastodon is superior tech-wise, safer and better.

        But, at this moment, the people I look to reach are on Bluesky, none are on Mastodon.
