@jonty this is fiiiine. bluesky is filled with very smart people and therefore they don’t need to participate in open standard groups before they just invent their own!
@jesseplusplus @jonty this is why they’re doing a closed beta, to find and fix these issues.

@thomasfuchs @jesseplusplus @jonty it's just a shame that they're having to solve a lot of problems ActivityPub has already solved by rolling their own protocol.
That's where a lot of the goodwill snark on here comes from IMO. Of course, there's plenty of ill-will snark as well.
