Is BlueSky actually legit? I got rid of Twitter, Threads, Instagram, LinkedIn, Reddit, Discord, and as much of the Google Eco as I can right now.

I have both Lemmy (obviously) and Mastadon. BkueSky was always a question mark for me. It’s not federated and it doesn’t show ads and it doesn’t ask for a subscription.

Color me a cynical fuck; but, I am wondering if BlueSky is legit enough with privacy and surveillance.

Anyone smarter than myself able to give me some guidance?

    They have venture capital backing as a direct competitor to Twitter. I’m sure there are other sources as well, but that’s the big one, I think.
