2 months ago@eddeeMN that a person is a liar is no justification for setting up a straw man argument.

It gets into this really nutty conspiracy theory. Yeah, Trump’s a liar, but that doesn’t give much license to ignore everything else happening in his entire orbit to put words in his mouth and criticize him for the thing that he explicitly rejects.
Just because he’s a liar doesn’t mean you can ignore everything and make up an alternative story and run with it.
@sabreW4K3 Well that’s a pretty nonsensical take.
The use of some decentralization techniques? It is decentralized because it uses decentralization techniques, and that’s all there is to it. It is far more decentralized than this platform because of the techniques it uses. It focuses on users instead of centralizing around instances.
From the point of view of power dynamics? GTFO with that BS.
No, BlueSky is decentralized. It is more decentralized than this platform. These people are trying really really hard to bend things and find problems that don’t really match reality.
And they need to be called out over it.
I really wish this platform was more decentralized, but that’s not how the engineers designed it, and we need to call them out over it.
