The Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey has left the board of Bluesky, the decentralised social network he helped start, and encouraged users to remain on his first site, now owned by Elon Musk and called X.
Dorsey confirmed he had cut ties with Bluesky on Sunday, telling a user on X that he was no longer on the social network’s board. The announcement was apparently unexpected, since Bluesky still listed him as a board member until late on Sunday evening.
Yes. A bunch of the biggest trans accounts are run by communists lol
Ok dude just go piss off to a yoga hut in the middle of the desert.
(Watch it be they tried to force pro genocide on it and he just said fuck it we can't win) but I know, hell world.
“Blue sky broke friends with me so you should break friends with them and we can both be friends with my friends birdsite and then I’m telling my parents “
encouraged users to remain on his first site
Why? Money? Bluesky isn’t really successful, is that a reason?

In a characteristically bizarre interview with Mike Solana of Founders Fund, Dorsey had plenty of criticism for Bluesky.
In the interview, Dorsey claimed that Bluesky was “literally repeating all the mistakes” he made while running Twitter. The entire conversation is long and a bit rambly, but Dorsey’s complaints seem to boil down to two issues:
- He never intended Bluesky to be an independent company with its own board and stock and other vestiges of a corporate entity (Bluesky spun out of Twitter as a public benefit corporation in 2022.) Instead, his plan was for Twitter to be the first client to take advantage of the open source protocol Bluesky created.
- The fact that Blueksy has some form of content moderation and has occasionally banned users for things like using racial slurs in their usernames.
Dorsey also confirmed that he is financially backing Nostr, another decentralized Twitter-like service popular among some crypto enthusiasts and run by an anonymous founder. “I know it's early, and Nostr is weird and hard to use, but if you truly believe in censorship resistance and free speech, you have to use the technologies that actually enable that, and defend your rights,” Dorsey said.
Techbro one-trick pony attempts second trick, upon realising that it wasn't an immediate success ragequits and demands that his loyal followers follow him loyally.
