Bluesky

@bsky.app

We sincerely thank Jack for his help funding and initiating the bluesky project. Today, Bluesky is thriving as an open source social network running on atproto, the decentralized protocol we have built.

All I ask is that you get someone smart and qualified to be on it. No rich tech bros, no fame-addicted clout-chasing elders, no political crackpots. Someone with some sense about the world and how the internet is meant to work.

With Jack’s departure, we are searching for a new board member for the Bluesky public benefit company who shares our commitment to building a social network that puts people in control of their experience. More to come!
