So #Bluesky is implementing an (unspecified) new protocol for direct messages. Because AtProto is really not suitable for anything that isn't 100% public.
I wonder whether they can do this now that Jack is off the board. But maintaining two separate protocols in the same app? Who knows, maybe #ActivityPub is next?
@J12t I don't think Jack had a lot of weight on their decisions. The reason they didn't do DMs from the get-go is the same as why they were late when it mattered. They didn't have a product, and they are still building it.
