Thank you @moonalice.com for suggesting a subscription to keep BlueSky free from ads and data surveillance. I primarily lurk but would happily pay a minimum of $12/year for a user-friendly platform. Asking @jay.bsky.team and her amazing team to make this happen!
@jay.bsky.team
I hope Bluesky’s business model will match the culture that is forming here. Leverage the goodwill.

If so, BS should engage users ASAP in a discussion: offer no ads, no data/surveillance in exchange for subscriptions. Users will pay to avoid repeating Twitter nightmares.

Hello @prchovanec.bsky.social....thank you for this post (& your many others; this liberal Cdn has learned much from you) and an example for @thebulwark.bsky.social @jvl.bsky.social @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social of how to convey a mixed message respectfully
People can debate what Jimmy Carter's political legacy was. But his human legacy was an astoundingly positive one, worthy of deep admiration.

Hi @thebulwark.bsky.social @jvl.bsky.social @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social You boast of "telling it like it is," yet the post abt Jimmy Carter sounds like a GOP talking point; surely there is a better way to convey your reservations & acknowledge his successes-do better
