its weird how most of these articles fail to ask the pertinent question “would you vote for trump again knowing what you know now?”

a Trump administration official said an “extensive process was conducted” to ensure “mission critical functions” were not compromised during the first round of dismissals

hahahahah right. does anyone actually believe that?!

ha, no… bluesky is not open to federation. they control the only router and do not allow connectivity to routers not controlled by them.

there isnt a single non-bluesky controlled instance that can federate natively with bluesky.

bluesky is just twitter with a little more user-controllable data sourcing. not that theres anything wrong with that, but its certainly not a part of any federation.

heres a good in-depth writeup of how a single tweet was blown up by people with an agenda, or a general failure to critically think about words:

believe what you want to believe of course.

completely debatable if you dig into it, which i have.

grab a personal domain, setup smtp through proton then have your local mail client archive via imap

email is the only service i would never self-host directly.

we can only hope this is the rock bottom that people need in order to see their way out of the fox news pit of lies.

because whole instances could suck, and admins need an easy solution.

dont like it? switch instances or setup your own. that is the beauty of the fediverse
