You're measuring Bluesky with a different measuring stick than they are.
You're measuring it with the "This is decentralized, and therefore not connected to corporate interests, and never can be" stick.
These journalists WORK FOR the corporate interests you left twitter (or maybe never had an account) over. They are measuring the stick by "These current users are just MAGA users in a cult".
As long as Bluesky doesn't start shifting right wing MAGA, it IS different for their purposes. It's just their purposes are not YOUR purposes, and therefore they can still say that it's different, and not have that be a lie. Doesn't mean it'll satisfy you any.
