I'm a disillusioned Facebook user, acknowledging that I'm a social media addict, yet desperately seeking a way to escape the grip of American oligarchy. Is this my new home?

Company - Bluesky Bluesky is building a protocol for public conversation that can make social networks work more like email, blogs, or phone numbers — the open systems that power the rest of our online lives.

Yeah, if you read their mission statement, that's an important part of it. No central authority owning or controlling all the content.

How is Bluesky financed?

"Bluesky started off with funding from investors and venture capital firms and has raised tens of millions of dollars through these means.

Bluesky has said it wants to avoid [advertising]. Instead, it said it will continue to look into paid services"
