Interesting article. It seems Meta wouldn’t want to use At protocol because of too much user empowerment.
Threads Adopting ActivityPub Makes Sense, but Won't Be Easy
Threads will soon connect its 100 million users to the fediverse via ActivityPub. But Meta faces a number of technical and social challenges.

i feel like people get here from twitter with a bunch of latent aggression like soldiers coming back from the war to polite society, but they can't fit in because all they know how to do is kill

I’m excited to see Twitter shoving it’s stick in it’s spokes. It will be painful for Twitter users but moving to decentralized tech will be worth it in the end! Hell ya

Product idea for Bluesky:

Hastags are like subreddits; has a topic, post format, rules, moderation, can be subbed to etc. Adding hashtags submits post to each hashtag's sub. Mods removing post from sub only unlists it. Could be good for community building & discoverability.

If we are ever getting to twitter size, based on the math, we are currently about .016% of the way there. Lol we basically don’t even exist. Baby steps though!

Free advice to the top biskies: you want to add people closest to the exist network to maximize engagement. To do this, let *everyone* nominate folks to the waitlist/co-sign existing ones. Sort by number of requests and process the list.

Or take existing list and cluster by non-generic domain.

I know this won’t last but simplicity can be a beautiful thing. Being able to explain the algo in a single post is so old-fashioned and mystical. It was a nice move early.
pretty sure it's just 5 likes

altho posts just show up in chronological order in what's hot

so if a day old post hits 5 likes, it won't be at the top of what's hot

it's about as braindead simple of an algo as you can imagine 😅

You can only say you’re fully grown up when you don’t give an f what 80% of people think. Full 100 and you are probably unhinged.

Opt-in account directory with longer bios. So we can find new people easier.
