He's also apparently putting a significant amount of money into Nostr.

I think his big problem is with the audience Bluesky attracted, to be honest. It seems like exactly the opposite of what a techno-jerkoff like him wants to see.

What audience is it?

I've been running scripts to migrate my Twitter follows to Bluesky, and the people who it actually found there are mostly artists, queer shitposters, and leftist activists - all precisely the types of people that guys like Dorsey hate.

Well that's the strongest argument for making a Bluesky account that I've heard

Give it a try. I really wanted Mastodon to be the next thing to replace Twitter (mostly because it isn't, and can never be, controlled by techbros), but I've mostly found Bluesky to be the more fun place. And now that Dorsey's officially out, I don't have to feel as guilty about that.

It's pretty cool. There's enough public figures there and funny people to make it an interesting vibe. There's seemingly no conservatives either, it's a LOT of furry art though.
