 Techdirt article on Jack, Bluesky, mentions nostr a wee bit - written by a bluesky user.

I think Jack commenting that bluesky has attracted a 'very very common crowd' comment gets unfairly interpreted whenever I've seen it mentioned. I think he assumed a bit of reading between the lines? Well, I'm interpreting it as meaning the very very common 2010s Tumblr / Left Twitter positions and posturings - a pastiche kitsch protest punk rock sanctioned by HR departments. The mandatory positions you have to adopt to get art grants. Very very commonplace?

Eg:

(Maybe I've got this wrong lol)
