If the userbase of mastodon is even remotely similar to that of lemmy, I sure as fuck am glad I joined Bluesky instead

I don't understand what anyone uses twitter, bluesky or mastodon for anymore. I used twitter to follow companies (like CoffeeStain) or YouTubers/Artists.
Bluesky has some of that, meanwhile mastodon is just a circle pit of yelling and also the same stuff I see on Lemmy.
I don't understand what people use it for. There's no information to follow like company game accounts for games I play, and when I tried to do goofy shitposts like old twitter i got a grand total of 0 likes.

I use masto for myself, not for likes. I use it to get SilentSunday and Mosstodon photos and to goof around with people I meet in the online space.
Sure it'd be nice to see a like or a response to a shit post, but for that you need to be followed by people who share your sensibilities, as there's no algorithm boosting your stuff into other people's timelines. Unless you use a relevant hashtag that's being followed by others.

What's wrong with Bluesky? From my perspective it looks pretty dang wholesome. Could someone please elaborate?

I had originally not expected it to last a year of Peon Muck's ownership, but hopefully it'll finish dying (or fall into complete irrelevance) by the end of 2025.

I thought that was the FreedomBox logo at first. I was confused why Billy's dad would be mad at the kid making a freedombox to run federated systems.
It is very similar
This post is a request for attack surface area.
Twitter was a vapid load of crap before Elmo took it over. I see this as a win if it knocks him down a peg or 44 billion.

You can run your own relays, the obstacle is that each relay takes up many terabytes. But it's fully open.

Community owned centralized systems are the answer.
