"Vibe"- is Bluesky "the shmoo of social media?"

Update/expansion of thoughts on Bluesky promise/directions, after comments by @pfrazee.com, @mchrisriley.com.

Too wonky?, see shmoo bit near end. cc: @jay.bsky.team.

More on directions for Bluesky in update to my 6/25 post.

More on federation, "moderation," reputation, & subsidiarity.

Too lazy to read all that? See "Vibe"- Bluesky as the "shmoo of social media" (near the end).
