Bluesky Reveals Massive Hidden Investment

@mastodonmigration maybe the techies are but not much from ordinary users
Interesting

It certainly is not. Have never seen it before. Name another example.
@mastodonmigration The average delay from getting funding and announcing it is about 3 months. It's completely normal. This is just how venture capital works.

Nonsense. Saying it does not make it so. It is simply not true. Plus, we are talking about a year, and particularly with an investment of this magnitude.

To understand all this better, consider that the Crypto PAC 'Fairshake' spend over $20M in Illinois and $10M of that on a failed attempt to defeat Julianna Stratton. They have over $220M more to spend on influencing the midterms. For these guys the opportunity to achieve some degree of message control over liberal social media is well worth $100M.
How will they do it? Algorithmic manipulation of social media? Quieting critics, amplifying favorable messaging? Has it already begun?
The implausible excuse now coming from Bluesky PBC officers as to why they failed to disclose this $100M is that the were "too busy."

@mastodonmigration If they expect anyone to accept that, it just demonstrates the absolute contempt they have for their users. Amazing.
On the other hand, it was well known from Day One what BS was. Maybe the people using it are the sort that WANT to be treated that way.

There is certainly something psychologically binding about parroting something you know to be untrue out of fealty. Explains a lot of society actually.

@mastodonmigration so maybe the BS team had a little yardwork to do, or something in the garage needed tidying up? Perhaps a kid had a ballet recital that interfered with announcements regarding creepy investors.

@mastodonmigration 12 months don't just 'slip' by. $100,000,000 is something you talk about every day. Something that grabs your attention and places it squarely in your Gantt chart, or whatever AI tool you're using to reduce 'busyness'. And don't be so dismissive with your 15 word social media post, Mike. Do we believe you? Nope.
