Appreciate this may not be a universally popular opinion but the less you treat BlueSky as a crusade or cause, and the more you position it as simply a superior user experience with a better governance approach, the more sustainable the growth will be.

Causal reasoning: You're pitching a change from one little app for sharing thought bubbles to another, not rallying the troops for a final advance across the razorwire into the gates of hell. If this place weren't a better user experience, loathing for Musk would not be enough to sustain it.

Point taken about not changing the world 😝 But plurality of media and neutrality of networks are real public goods. In helping to (collectively) create a network of critical mass, we are all contributing to their creation.

I guess my point is, if you consider the average user are they more interested in: a) Having a positive experience on social media; b) Participating in the holy work of creating a critical mass network to rival Twitter. And is there any chance leaning into (b) will alienate group (a).
