Global discoverability is not necessarily a desirable feature. People should be able to 'discover' each other through their own social network. Machines (and corporations, police, surveillance systems, marketing tools) should not be able to 'discover' human accounts. Composable, customizable curation and moderation is algorithmic moderation. I'd rather not leave moderation to a machine. Again, why is Bluesky CEO not willing to work with the community? Not Invented Here (NIH) syndrome or a hidden agenda? Neither: they want to do their own algorithmic, AI-served thing and the community is in the way. But we want to create tools to support social relationships, not destroy them for profit. == hk
