@xtaldave Yeah but be fair: he resigned from the board and walked away months ago.

Several people (including some associated with academia) I have seen in the new great migration have called that out as a specific reason they're willing to try it now.

I'm not saying that we shouldn't be careful with Bluesky, there are a few red flags I'm worried about, but facts matter.
