Twitter 2.0? Former CEO Jack Dorsey announces Beta testing for BlueSky..

[KingDanz]

Jack Dorsey, the co-founder and former CEO of Twitter is beta-testing a new social networking platform. Dorsey had announced that his decentralized social service Bluesky was calling for beta testers a week before Elon Musk took complete control of Twitter.

As Elon Musk settles in as Twitter's new owner, Jack Dorsey is building a new social network.

The Twitter co-founder, who stepped down as CEO in Nov. 2021, and left the board of directors six months later, has now turned his focus to a new venture: Bluesky Social, a decentralized social network protocol.

And according to Dorsey, Bluesky will not be competing with Twitter in the traditional sense, as he noted recently that the app will instead be "a competitor to any company trying to own the underlying fundamentals for social media or the data of the people using it."

The company recently laid out its vision for the platform sharing exactly what to expect from this newest social network.

"The World-Wide Web wouldn't have been much fun if it had been created without a browser, and the same goes for the AT (Authenticated Transfer) protocol," the company wrote on Twitter on Oct. 18. "So we're also building a social application called Bluesky."

What does this mean? Bluesky will allow social media users to be in complete control of their algorithms.

"Algorithms dictate what we see and who we can reach," the Bluesky team wrote in a separate tweet. "We must have control over our algorithms if we're going to trust in our online spaces."

Bluesky

Social media as it should be. Find your community among millions of users, unleash your creativity, and have some fun again.

Good.

We need as many hands working on a Twitter replacement as possible now that Musk is at the helm

It’s about time for a new one.

 

[OneManGang]

[Koba St]

If it works, I’m moving there asap

 

[Ain't That Something]

Can't say I didn't see this move coming. Look like Jack Dorsey was really the one playing 4D Chess not Elon

Jack is an annoying crypto bro on the side and was just as big on the whole "free speech" thing as elon types and the dude who made reddit as well.

basically let these white boys say whatever they were able to say on ***** is what they consider "free speech" even if it's hate speech and racist.

You're trippin. They're nothing alike lol. Jack was out in Ferguson on Day 1 after Mike Brown got killed. Jack partnered with Jay Z to start a crypto school in Brooklyn and give away Bitcoin to students. One is actually "African" but hasn't done shyt for Africans. Define people by their actions.

Needs a new name, but I'll give it a shot.

you are easily impressed.

i said elon is worse, but he not that much worse. google jack dorsey and free speech and you think that "opening a crypto school" so the black community can jump in and pump a pyramid scheme where this crypto bro and his crypto bro friends get richer is a good thing?

nah


we disagree, anyway feel free to invest in his new company, i'm sure more people think like yall than like me.
