  1. It's the same fucking Billionaire, Jack Dorsey made/whatever Twitter, and then he made/whatever Bluesky.
  2. This is the same fucking thing as the windows/mac switch from the 00s. If you want an alternative to fucking windows, linux exists and existed back then too. But it's the same, the masses want the corporate bullshit, just the "New and improved!" version becoming trendy.

    Linux wasn't consumer friendly until Ubuntu, Mac was an obvious alternative for average consumers in the early 00s. These things only pick up traction when the average user finds value in it. It's literally about the lowest common detonator user. That's just how consumerism works.

    Yeah, so since the user isn't more knowledgeable then they deserve to stick with the shitty standard instead of buying a fashion product and being elitists about it.

    If they wanted to be elitists they could have "switched" to Linux.
