Leaving the board of directors is pretty much as giving up ownership rights. He has nothing to do with Bluesky anymore and he makes us sure he doesn’t want to.

Jack Dorsey has nothing to do with Bluesky

It doesn’t matter if it’s a “far more organised approach”, logseq simply doesn’t fit many types of workflows for note taking.

logseq is a zettelkasten program; Obsidian is a text editor

6 people in a support team working on R&D

It’s a small team of 6 in the USA that worked as a support team for R&D, no one there “wrote the successful game”.

I’ve been with them since the first alphas, and no, the mobile and desktop apps, and the server implementation were never open source, only the mautrix and beeper bridges. Nothing has changed with the new apps, and the local bridges (that run in your phone with the app) will also be open sourced on release.

The beeper apps were never open source to begin with, but all the bridges are and will continue being.

They were required by law to give out whatever I formation they had, which is barely anything. Proton (and other similar services) aren’t exempt from the law, despite what you may think.

Hey look it’s the bandwagon that thinks privacy focused services are above the law and talk smack about those when they follow the law

If you look at the very first page, it says " property of the US government"

I’m pretty sure the USA does not own my South American and European passports nor my driving licences

Say what you will about the country, but gov.br and PIX put everything else to shame and no one even came close to something like that

But you’re not handing your phone over, it stays in your hand and if there’s a QR code to scan they’ll scan it with the phone in your hand

In Brazil, the officer just uses their own phone to scan a validation QR on the ID app, at no point your phone leaves your hand and in a few seconds the officer has what they need. Shouldn’t this be the case in the EU? AFAIK the officers only take your physical ID to check the number, so if you’re using the app they shouldn’t need to confirm that as the info is already validated

They have already stated they’ll do a premium subscription

Reminder

It doesn’t matter if BlueSky has or hasn’t EU offices, if EU citizens are allowed to use their service, then they have to abide by GDPR, DSA and other EU regulations.

Prove it or stop spamming this

It’s more like a problem avoiding the existing solution

This user is spamming the same comments about this on every post about Bluesky and their sources are “trust me bro I hate Jack”

Seems their official/main app is FOSS
