Adobe is on BlueSky! no, wait...
-
Bluesky isn’t fediverse
-
Pretty sure this late into the game Adobe know full well that people hate them, I think they underestimated the level of corporate greed and enshittification that Bluesky has and will return when things are more “corporate friendly”
They trying to engage in BlueSky is evidence they didn't know.
It's surprising to me too.
-
They're flooded by the bots, or filtered, on other platforms. Couple that with Bluesky being a new platform with a decidedly anti-corporate user bias, and the message ratios change dramatically.
Gotcha I was confused how this could be a surprise to them lol

That's how you keep Twitter alive
If it's all bots and PR departments, it's basically irrelevant.
-
It's always okay to cyberbully Adobe though
-
I mean, good? I guess they'd bring some user growth, but they'd just post their brand stuff that I don't imagine most people really want in their feeds, and there's the risk that they end up getting favored treatment on larger instances by donating more than a typical user can or paying the moderators there.
My thoughts exactly.
There are vanishingly few places on the Internet that are not inundated with constant ads, promotions, astroturfing, and commercials.
It's why I like it here.

Ironically, it's free!

I feel like corporations look at Lemmy/The Fediverse the same way Mufasa looked at the place where the hyenas lived.
meanwhile i look at Lemmy/Fediverse the same way e621 looks at the place where the hyenas lived

And nothing of value was lost that day.

Sure I don't want ads pumped into my feed but some corporations can do social media well. I used to follow Yorkshire Tea on twitter who were generally pretty funny, I don't drink even drink their teas.

Also way too many corps don't have up to date information on their website and their twitter profile has more recent info. The lack of that on any FOSS/decentralized social media means that some people just have to keep a centralized account open.

@[email protected] that's the main thing for me too. That news orgs, political agencies, and corporations use Xitter to communicate is the real travesty.
