Bluesky has been doing enshitification since it didn’t mind having that transphobic man on their platform, as far as I’m concerned.

I mean, it was made by former Twitter execs... and that was marketed as an "advantage" over alternatives like Mastodon. This isn't surprising at all unless you literally don't pay any attention to anything.

I've given up trying to save people from obvious traps. They refuse to listen and they refuse all data.

I use duckduckgo. It shows the sites I’ve visited, and tracking attempts. And, yes, there are tracking attempts from bluesky. There are no tracking attempts from lemmy.ca
