Why have they jumped to another billionare run site instead of spinning up a mastodon instance?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago

Because there hasn't been much billionaire behind bluesky for a long time now, and "spinning up a mastodon instance" is the exact reason the general people are avoiding mastodon in the first place.

The goal is to reach people, not to promote a pure solution that's repulsive to the masses.

Or why isn't there a server for EU agencies rather than each of them spinning one up. Surely across the whole of the EU, somebody could set that up.
