Reposted by Jacky Alciné𝕮 @chrisshank.com · 03/10/2026Yes, my take is that Bluesky PBC isn't a social media company, they're a dev infrastructure company that happens to be dogfooding their infra by building a clone of twitter. The priority is to make money by selling infra that will power the social internet, not from the bluesky app becoming big. 311011
