Still an improvement
From boiling water into water that happens to be in a switched-on kettle. Huge improvement.
When the enshittification comes (when, not if, they'll have to drag their feet to move somewhere else again. All their followers will have to follow them again. Had they moved to a proper open solution, they could've stayed there indefinitely.
It's not just about Bluesky" not being the proper and pure solution", it's about this being a temporary measure at best, and people don't seem to realize that.
Gosh I know, moving from a social media platform where its owner sig heils to a platform where its owner does not is just as bad. You're either trolling or an idiot.
It IS a huge improvement.
