I thought about it but lemmy seems more genuine.
No karma. No nothing. Just info.
This was more a Twitter vs BlueSky comparison... not against Lemmy, not sure I understand your comment

Fucking same! It baffles me how dumb people can be over and over again
I noped out the second I heard Dorsey was involved. Don't care he isn't anymore, it's got the Techbro ick! Eurgh 🤢
This is not enshittification. Many other knowledgeable users who actually know what they're talking about have explained why.
It's not exactly enshittification yet. The service still mostly works. But it is an attempt to build a wall around the garden.
Fuck walled gardens. That shit got old years ago. At least with FB you could pretend you didn't expect it. Maybe. If you're oblivious, at least.
I don't really see how. Other AppViews and custom clients don't do this. Its just a few lines of javascript in the frontend.

What is wrong wth a fucking discount code to show where you hot the referral.
I refuse all cookies everywhere and the internet works just fine.
I've given up trying to save people from obvious traps. They refuse to listen and they refuse all data.
Bluesky has been doing enshitification since it didn’t mind having that transphobic man on their platform, as far as I’m concerned.
which one?
Guessing we're talking about Jesse Singal. The man who was banned and then allowed back in after negotiating directly with bsky staff.
That’s the one. It’s a while back I left now.
Jesse Singal. The other person that replied reminded me. When I left his being allowed to be on the platform was a bit of thing.
For reference you can disable this with unlock origin https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/pull/27500
fuck it's almost like the world runs on capitalism
Yeah, this is why BlueSky's openness is always only to a point. I will say it's probably not as bad as some are making it out to be, but it's definitely not something you want to see from a platform purporting to be open. Fortunately this is only a BlueSky thing and not the entire AT Protocol... but at this point, the AT Protocol and BlueSky are inseperable. I mean, are there even any other AT Protocol sites?
As someone who ran a popular link shortening platform let me tell you how difficult it is to curtail spam links.
This is likely a way to warn users before being forwarded to fraudulent websites that a link has been marked as spam.
There are many other use cases for this redirect as well but this is the most obvious for user safety.
Doesn't sound plausible to me—If they can detect spam links like you're suggesting, why not just mask those links as bsky short links?
