As someone who works in advertising: Bluesky should absolutely not fucking do this. Once you incorporate a backend ads platform you are no longer running a social network. You are running an ad platform that can only be profitable by selling out your users.
The Internet used to be this great useful tool, until it was ruined and turned into a cesspool because of ads.
Nuke this mother fucker what in the fuck hey let me come in a fuck everything up so I can buy a yacht an have chippies attack orcas crunch me
The confidence that “do the same thing everyone else did” will somehow get a different result to everyone else
i dont get how this is rethinking advertising. it is just advertising. similar to how bluesky is not rethinking social networks, it is just a social network
There’s so many layers to the atmosphere, there’ plenty of ways to integrate monetizations for BlueSky or anyone else
this is the core problem of enshitification. but (genuine) how does a social network that's not ad based and not a nonprofit sustain itself? we're in the glory days right now, in the runway where investment $$ keeps the lights on, and i'm wondering what's next
Fuck yes No ads for the love of god please
What a fucking moron
i am so tired of dipshits with linkedin brain posting suggestions that were probably generated by ChatGPT.
