@thomasfuchs in bluesky's case, the twitter cofounder on the board is jack dorsey and the blockchain person on the board is jack dorsey as well?

@thomasfuchs Doesn’t look like the worst list of people possible. The Twitter guy is from early twitter and seems fine? Only the digital assets guy is questionable? All others seem good for a non profit board. Mastodon needs something to sustain itself.

@thomasfuchs For better or (often) worse, American capitalism is always ready to step up in lieu of an impossible German bureaucracy.

@thomasfuchs I love onboarding the enshittifiers :angry_laugh:

Who's the blockchain person? Let me guess... Biz Stone?

@nus no

I’m not saying it’s bad necessarily but it’s a bit of a weird turn of events.

(Had a meeting with Biz once when Twitter was like 25 people, he seems to be a nice guy.)

@thomasfuchs Which one is it? Blockchains are not mentioned in the text at all (thankfully)
