...and we're back to where we started.
You forgot "it's not my job to contribute to a community project" and "if they do enshittify it, I'll just move to the next Big Thing, making more billionaires who screw us over in the process."

Why is my cursor finding ways to delete my Bluesky account?
Lmao and all these idiots will gladly pay it because it's a slick corporate product, and they'll turn CryptoQueen Jay Graber into another fucking billionaire leech on our fucking system.
Great job everyone, meanwhile Mastodon still exists and you won't be contributing to building another billionaire crytpo freak to control our country's politics by using it. Also, all Mastodon features will continue to be free to everyone.
Jay Graber literally got her start in tech working on Zcash, a privacy-focused crypto-currency. She was happy to make a deal with Blockchain Capital, a Venture Capital firm made up entirely of cryptobros and 'effective altruism' freaks.
But I mean, this is America, where we say "Fuck community projects!" the corporations I hate and bitch about all the time pamper me like a baby and I must have that pampering!
"Corporations rob us of our dignity and independence."
why does that mean she’s a crypto queen? the hype around crypto clearly makes it a stable job to get started with, and being junior developer doesn’t mean she was a magnate at all. i don’t get the characterization of her or why there are much more reasons to hate her than reasons to hate gabe newell.

well, the sad truth of corporate america is that corporations just have more capital and resources to make for a better user experience.

You're gonna have a hard time convincing me anyone who sees crypto as a "stable job" and not "a fucking con" isn't sucked into this psycho TESCREAL bullshit and that they won't start being a fucking pox on our nation like Musk,who is also a TESCREAL freak.
Jay Graber was personally chosen by Jack Dorsey. Jack Dorsey is all in on TESCREAL, too.
You're telling me she's completely uninfluenced by the psycho freaks surrounding her and their unhinged ideologies? I just don't god damned buy it. Those views are almost endemic in Silicon Valley at this point.
