At least people know the bluesky logo. Wtf is that triforce on the right
PeerTube (don't duckduckgo "peertube logo" with safe search off)
Why the fuck does it show rule34
I couldn't help myself and did it.
Why?
It's just porn for whatever reason.
it seems entirely random categories and from random sites too, wonder how that happened
My question is why doesn't the PeetTube logo show up at all? If you turn safe search on, or change any of the letters to capitals ("peertube logO") it's nothing but the logo.
its also region dependent! my region shows the peertube logo, but the english speaking regions (and also catalonia for some reason???) show nothing but porn
wtf is this????
Also if you mess the colour filters, you still only get porn but different porn??? And on some if you select one colour, select another and go back there'll be more results, still only porn???
Huh i didnt get it. Must have safesearch(censorship) enabled by default.
Edit: it is in fact straight up porn 💀
Bruh
bluesky is the liberal cousin in a family of commies, also they actually have an active community with it's own vibe.
Bluesky is just going to turn into twitter in a few years. How does no one see the issue with one company owning a platform?!
Maybe bluesky might take a bit longer, but I don't see how threads is any better than twitter.
Just a different asshat running the company
Honestly, threads was only popular because of it being fused with instagram, so you would already have an audience and because it was the simplest alternative at the time.

You need to have a couple of explicitly anticapitalist thoughts to see the issue with it. So yeah, most won't see the issue with it.
While you can critisise its decentralisation, it is still in development. There is an effort (https://freeourfeeds.com/, cory doctorow supports it) to host atproto infrastructure outside of bsky's control.
it is not still in development decentralisation on bluesky is vapourware it will never exist it's just part of the standard EEE cycle it's marketing they'll say it didn't work out and cancel it the second they become the predominant platform
You dropped these: ,....
Punctuation aside, I find that hard to believe, they literally started out as a way to make twitter decentralised after jack dorsey got ✨inspired✨ by a paper on decentralisation. Decentralization on bluesky does exist, they got a lot of flack for banning a trans person who pointed out their head of t&s liked barely legal porn, but she just made her own pds (because bsky is open source) and is now untouchable. All it needs is account moving and to fix up did:plc a bit and it should be decent. I'd reccomend reading @cwebber@social.coop s article about it, points out its strenghts and weaknesses quite well. https://dustycloud.org/blog/how-decentralized-is-bluesky/ https://dustycloud.org/blog/re-re-bluesky-decentralization/ . I myself am annoyed at bluesky simple because I am a big fan of mastodon, but its already won.

Unpopular opinion: Bluesky is annoying because if I say anything about queer issues (especially trans ones) I get followed by a bunch of alt-righters and the occasional dude with a kiwifarms avatar or something weird like "we will find you" in their bio. Yeah they're just bots and they're easy enough to block but it's tedious. It's weird how many people nagged me to join and no one even mentioned that.
This is the first I'm hearing of this. Thanks for posting
Yeah, thats not a bluesky problem specifically, this could easily happen to the fediverse, we're just smaller, and better equipped to stop it since its more mature.
YouTube may be a mental illness, but it's my preferred mental illness.
If there is one irreplaceable content network, it's youtube. The amount of quality shit you can watch there for free is insane.

Yeah, I was more going for centralisation vs decentralisation but i agree.
I'm fine almost entirely without that mental illness.
Bluesky isn't much better.
You just need to learn to curate your feed.
The problem I have with it isn't the feed, it's the ownership.
"How dare they not be a huge billionaire corporation that kisses Trump's ass!" Ok buddy
They are another corporation.
I would've thought folks here would understand why corporate ownership of social media is ultimately the problem.
I don't think anyone said that.
Specifically who?
gestures around wildly anyone owning social media.
Remove Bluesky and add Lemmy.
Are you also on lemmy? Cool to find fellow lemmies in the wild!
Posting from Lemmy right now! It's so fucking cool how we can all be on different platforms but still chat it up.
I just got the screenshot from slashdot. Its the list of their social medias.
I miss the days of filling up my RSS feed from different websites. I hate how consolidated the internet became.
I mean, rss is really only dead on the consumer side, every website still seems to have it. Twitter is the only big one that got rid of it.
I'm reading quite a few blogs, a lot of them don't have RSS anymore.
Out of interest, which ones? You could contact the owner and ask them to set it up.
Add bluesky to the list of mental ilnesses
Damn, watching videos is a mental illness now?
Yes. It all started with animated gifs, and it only got worse from there.

To watch what?
blender videos
