“Stepped up antitrust enforcement” should have meant “scrutinize more small deals that can still have big local anticompetitive effects” not “arbitrarily decide that tech companies are too big.”
While I'm vocally skeptical of the current administration's approach to antitrust, this oped makes the same mistake: over indexing on the tech cases/companies

Most antitrust is much more mundane and beneficial

There's no longer any upside to Twitter over Bluesky. Twitter's engagement is terrible, it downranks external links, and you're subjected to straight nazi shit if you write even the most banal post. Why are we subjecting ourselves to this?

Great reminder that CA isn’t the only state that is slow at counting.
Does it feel crazy that #CA13 isn't decided yet, 3+ weeks after the election?

Psh, that's nothing. This is probably the earliest we'll know the winner of all 435 House districts in several years.

Gather 'round, children, for a thread of elections past...

Bluesky app opens links directly in my browser rather than an in-app browser experience (no need to follow users around for ad purposes). That alone makes it better than all the other apps

Now we’re cooking, feels like I’ve been able to refollow a great deal of people I followed at the old place and organize into lists. Which Threads somehow still doesn’t have?

Look at this place. Bluesky is already growing up! Idk about Mastodon but feels like there’s some real momentum here - keep the feed behavior simple, slowly add features + QOL updates and we’re in great shape
