#[manton]I still think it’s time for Bluesky to ship to everyone. Or at least have a public roadmap so we know what to expect and when.
#[snarfed]I'm glad they're going slow. the product is the protocol as much as - probably more than - the social app, and it's hard to change a protocol once there's a lot of usage, so this is the time to try hard to get that right
#[manton]That’s true, but if it takes too long, it won’t matter how good the protocol is because everyone will have moved on. Finding the right balance is hard.
#[snarfed]maybe. but we've seen that nothing lasts forever, and there's no single point in time for early mover advantage. MySpace => FB => IG => TikTok, etc
#[manton]I think the most compelling thing about Bluesky right now is their approach to identity. I hope that that can influence the direction of ActivityPub.
#[manton]Secondary is having a more open client/server API, compared to Mastodon’s API.
