thinking about writing about this as an interesting internet subculture conflict -- is it that mastodon users are mad that bluesky isn't on activitypub, and then bluesky users are mad that mastodon is mad? and the cultural divide of bluesky being a bit more shitposty and mastodon being more rules-y?
things really kicked off over the possibility of a bridge, but generally speaking there seems to be a fair amount of hostility among blueskiers towards mastodon users and vice versa
a lot of folks on bsky portraying mastodon users as HOA-style control freaks policing everyone else's posts
a lot of folks on mastodon condemning bskiers for using a platform that they see as less open, likely to be enshittified, and tainted by the Dorsey connection
It's weird to see the Balkanization before my eyes. They're both cool places with cool communities who aren't run by billionaire assholes, and I enjoy them both!
