Is she getting tired of death threats from trump’s gang?
Oh no, another ‘safe space’ brought to you by rainbow capitalism turns out to be, in fact, another ‘safe space’ brought to you by rainbow capitalism.
Anyway…
That’s all the talk so far? It feels like a bad sign to me when power starts moving from the true believers to the VCs.
It was always going to be this way. It didn’t take long to see the signs of enshittification on BSky. They were subpoenaed for user info, they banned journalists, implemented age verification, and I left when they started adding link redirects and tracking.
They banned journalists? Who?
And I didn’t know about the redirects and tracking either. They are doing that without ads?
Which is why “Not for profit” organisations are such a good thing. They are harder to get going but because they are not investment vehicles in the same way you don’t have CEOs installed just to maximise share value. Decisions are focused on what the company needs to perform its mission.
What goes up must come down… watch in the tech bro future we will be bailing out social media companies just like the airlines. Always making a good thing bad.
They may fail but we better not be bailing them out!
Does anyone know what desitions he made at Automattic?
> Schneider, who will continue working as a partner at the venture capital firm True Ventures while at Bluesky, was previously CEO of the Wordpress parent company, Automattic, from 2006 to 2014.
Does anyone know what desitions he made at Automattic?
given the way automattic has run for the last 15 years, probably the bad ones.
Blue sky was started by elon’s good buddy. It was always going to go full shit.
He was not always Elon’s buddy and he was not a PoS at the time, to my knowledge. In fact he went on Joe Rogan and argued with Tim Poole and defended his liberal policies and trans protections.
Unfortunately COVID radicalized them both.
it wasn’t started by jack; it was an incubator project at twitter with the original twitter devs and jack remained on the board.
"Venture capitalist " pfffft “proves you build a real business around open software.” - well forget about that the corpos dragging us all into cyber war (wE hAvE +0 sAvE +He Ch!LdReN)… while we talk to LLMs with our subscription based suck and fuck machine brought to you by tesla gambiling with fart coin eating radioactive cornchips. Roman salute to the suck and fuck machine as your identity is being stolen by DOGE and sold to israel because you posted something naughty on the interweb. The future is stoopid the future is a nightmere. They always leave when something “BIG” is going to happen. Corpos are strategic… Corpo messaging… “positioning itself as a progressive replacement”— CORPO_WOKE… What you see is not what you see. Other than trying to read between the lines why the fuck would anybody care about these vampires. A circle jerk of the techbro wealthy. I take nothing at face value. Katie Drummond the current global editorial director at Wired at the WEF Annual Meeting in 2025
These capitalist are sick and tired of the constitution. Everything is a commodity that you can rent. I know I sound crazy but I am not. They are playing good cop bad cop and flooding the zone. They all in on it. It is one big club and you aint in it. I don’t like change in general and I am not big on features and benefits. I have yet to be impressed other than be horrified by AI. Reinvent a wheel as a square, charge tripple and beat me over the head with it.
Julian Paul Assange + Edward Snowden = FUCK ALL BIG TECH
You do sound a little batty, as a matter of style.

how else to cope
Yeah, like… I think I agree with most of that, but I really want any of that to represent me.
Nah, ceo-shmeo shuffle has nothing to do with technology.
If the CEO is in charge of a technology based company, yeah…it does.
“Tim Cook steps down from role”
“THATS NOT A TECHNOLOGY STORY!!!”
See how that comes off?
His name is literally Tim Apple. I don’t think the company would survive without him.
Tim who? Now if Tim Apple stepped down, that’d be something
No? Cook’s moving isn’t a “technology” story.
CEO changes can be very intensive technology changes like when musk took over Twitter and turned the tech into a dumpsterfire
If you want a version of this community that excludes company/legal/legislation news, there’s !tech@programming.dev
Like it or not CEOs hold considerable power in tech.
true
Dictators too. That doesn’t make news about them “technology” news.
It does actually when their decisions affect tech.
Dictators can affect funding and deals pretty well, they have a lot less influence on the products. From what I’ve seen most “tech” topics are mostly shiny new products and the periphery to that
We like to compute… these venture corpo turdz like to suck blood… we are intertwined.
The Managerial Class got that corpo language that spreads like wildfire, dum dums read their books, people start chirpin and people start getting dumb ideas. So we keep track of the change to anticipate anti social actions by those above us. There is a reason why things happen. If you pay attention you might realize why you are getting fucked. Just saying there is some value at keeping track of the corpo turdz.
A little of yes a little no
