Bluesky is a corporate hedge to delay the social network business from becoming not a business, it is headed by variously naive or disengenous tech people who believe they are creating the future when they are mercenaries for the past.
You know when you see oil company commercials and they have lots of footage of wind turbines, solar panels and other ecofriendly crap? That is bluesky.
This strategy has been working pretty great for oil companies. They've managed to extend their existence for decades.
While true, covering up fundamental faults to keep afloat is hardly an example of best practice.
