and yes, I'm very much averse to Social Media for the most part... it blocks YOU from having to see anything you don't want or front people you want to avoid.

BUT does this block YOU from THEM? IOW, I see the WH joining Bluesky not for any good reasons, but in order to spy on us, get our information more easily, and use that to target us.

I liked the Mastodon lack of centralization. BlueSky is centralized which makes it easier to search, etc... but it also adds an element of danger, IMO. Besides the fact, it's corporate built and sponsored.
