It looks like Bluesky is now open for anyone to make an account: https://image.nostr.build/3a202de52f4ea52e93e3788d49f3c8c73fd987a61cbbecd4996957267b998766.png https://bsky.social/about/blog/02-06-2024-join-bluesky
That whole invite farce didn’t really help
It kind of did. 3M users. 500K active. Meanwhile on Nostr 👀 I'm not a Bluesky fan, but clearly the FOMO method works.
I think it was more .@jack effect than the invites
Fiatjaf is angry at Nostr
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OK
Need a telco account it appears. Seems pointless (telco is easy to cancel / forge).
Fake & gay
Yeah, but why would I do that?
SMS verification. wow. disappointing.
They blue it
Well done sir.
Can't you get a nonKYC SMS? eg via google voice or jmp.chat
What did you expect?! It has a butterfly!
GitHub is forcing 2FA now as well. 🙄
use a disposable number https://quackr.io/
Does this ever work for long, however?
I admire you a lot and I need you to share or donate, I live in Brazil, I have a cousin, his dream is to be a football player, he got an opportunity to play on a team, but the passage And everything else costs 10 thousand reais, about 2500 thousand and dollars, if you can help, thank you, if you can't, please share https://image.nostr.build/633a50af42f48d179a33e9c22af5ef9b5c93c092f1fdfe2d0f9b7850908d5b5f.jpg#m=image%2Fjpeg&dim=864x1920&blurhash=%5BKD9xGj%404nayxuf6WCfQ00j%5B%3FbayIUayogfR%7EqayIUfQt8ayoffPRkayfPfQ%25MfkM%7BayE1ayxuj%5B&x=87937664b86b320d4a9fd619a195e65d8a2850b38f8bc1532754a943a50b53f7
Still a centralized crawler just open registration right? Still needs an open AT
This is 0% surprising.
That moment when BlueSky realizes poast is probably going to start seeping into their network https://nostrfiles.dev/uploads/b1DRJxvYWh0Xrw8DjJDP.mp4 #bluesky #at #atproto #atprotocol #meme nostr:nevent1qqs93gz3adczmehjtch5lzm8wlx7yhwpf782cg5jr3hvhu2jkaltzccpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfdupzqwlsccluhy6xxsr6l9a9uhhxf75g85g8a709tprjcn4e42h053vaqvzqqqqqqy5kmwky
The most interesting aspect of all of this, to me, is that Bluesky's success is tied to centralized services. People love this. They yearn for it. We're opting out of that with Nostr. It's a mental shift that not everyone is ready to experience just yet. nostr:nevent1qqs93gz3adczmehjtch5lzm8wlx7yhwpf782cg5jr3hvhu2jkaltzccpr9mhxue69uhhq7tjv9kkjepwve5kzar2v9nzucm0d5pzqwlsccluhy6xxsr6l9a9uhhxf75g85g8a709tprjcn4e42h053vaqvzqqqqqqygt2vnc
I already got banned from there. Never again.
How did you get banned? What happens? Are people getting banned a lot there?
Well I was trying to get banned, so I joined, offended a bunch of woke people, and got kicked out within 3 days. It's on the #bluesky hashtag. But people do get blocked there a lot, and blocking is really weird there because other people can't see interactions between people where one party has blocked the other. https://i.nostr.build/9Daz.jpg#m=image%2Fjpeg&dim=1080x1239&blurhash=%7BN55%3BNfPRij%5BV%3FfQWAayQ*j%5BohaykDfQkDfQOJj%5BocayoIayf5j%5B%24%5EayWBj%5BWCfQa%23fQWBfQa%7CfQfQj%5Bj%5BfPNhj%5BoeayocfPf5fQr-fQa%7Ej%5BWYazbIfQpMfPWAfQadj%5BjYayR1fQogfQkDfQj%5DfQ&x=d43d109d12a0b8a50613fe6749f8f3b162f6fd5f76c1c3c544eafa445db95c96
Here's a thread I started about the blocking mechanics. nostr:nevent1qqs0vw90zk3x7f0x3u3lc7473423lnt5uzn05zx7w0pns3v7r5fp53gpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfdupzp4mqw3jzyhy2kcgd4x2ft0rsez36gksrlz3z490sdl94h3ppu4e6qvzqqqqqqyartc4e
I'd like to know why so I can decide whether or not I'll delete my account
I was banned because I was trying to get banned. No reason was specified even though I asked several times, but it was pretty obvious why. I actively posted content that would be offensive and triggering to their primary user base and collected about 200 blocks. I didn't make it 3 days. nostr:nevent1qqsz28z09r89m6vkc9468afhm6fmdrnp5xeg3tl3t96ux0w25y2a4mgpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfdupzp4mqw3jzyhy2kcgd4x2ft0rsez36gksrlz3z490sdl94h3ppu4e6qvzqqqqqqyvzaa7q
