Your complaint is about an unknown instance admin committing a maintenance mistake. Will bluesky's promised federation protect against that? You could join an instance managed by a well funded public entity if you want something that gets close to VC-funding. (which aren't that reliable either. Look how many of these start-up platforms go away)
See this is part of the problem.
Dude was like "look at this objectively terrible experience I actually had"
And you are like "yeah well that could happen to bsky in theory too, so they're just as bad!"
I've been a mastodon user for almost 2 years, but I never use it because finding interesting people to subscribe to who are actually active is difficult.
I haven't been using bsky because I've really been hoping mastodon takes off, but whenever I hear about how easy it is to onboard and find interesting content, I think about switching.
I mean if a centralized social media is what you want just join threads and cut the chase. The complaint they made, bluesky's federation does not solve. It is only not apparent because they have only one instance right now, similar to threads and Twitter.
What an absolutely braindead reply.
Mastodon had a bad experience for that person.
Blue sky didn't.
Their experience wasn't unique.
End of story.
You're doing mental gymnastics to misinterpret their argument. Nobody said they want centralized social media you absolute lemon. They want a user experience that doesn't suck. Right now, blue sky provides that while mastodon doesn't.
"Oh but bsky's federation doesn't solve Mastodon's problem" they don't have to solve Mastodon's problem.
Elitist neckbeards like you are the reason the fediverse isn't fun.
Your mental breakdown is reeking of self esteem issues. Go be a lunatic somewhere else and stop wasting my time.
I see you've employed the "I am rubber you are glue" tactic. Great job 👍
