Bluesky is in serious trouble.
The future of ATProto is compromised. The ecosystem of the #ATmosphere remains highly dependent on a startup company with no discernable path to profitability, questionable corporate leadership, a grumbling userbase which doesn’t seem to even *like* the parent corp, and declining activity.
Yup…it's time for another Bluesky vibe check.
(also, shoutout to #Mastodon for celebrating its 10th birthday this year! 🥳)
