Isn't Dorsey in charge of Blue Sky?

WTF? What a wild resume ride:

In 2015, Graber began working as a software engineer for SkuChain in Mountain View, California.[1] She then worked in a factory in Moses Lake, where she soldered together bitcoin mining equipment.[1] In 2016, she began working as a junior developer for the Zcash cryptocurrency.[1][3][4] In 2019, she founded the event planning website Happening, Inc.[1][3][4]

In August 2021, Graber became the first CEO of Bluesky, a microblogging social platform and public benefit company.[5][6][7] Bluesky had been conceived as a new initiative by Twitter's original owners in 2019, but evolved to become Twitter's main rival following the 2022 acquisition of Twitter by Elon Musk.[3][4][8][9]

Edit: I had no idea he left. He thinks X is awesome now, glad he's gone. https://time.com/6974971/jack-dorsey-leaves-bluesky-board/

Here's an informative thread about who's funding and controlling Bluesky now.

So it's Steve Bannon MAGA, shady af, and libertarian. I love how they call their philosophy post-rationalists. It could be taken many different ways.
