Is this really technology or social media marketing?

It's not a new or unique feature...

As long as bluesky is not truly decentralized, it is not worth looking at.

While I agree, everyone constantly restating this is not helpful. We should instead ask ourselves what’s about BlueSky is working and what can we learn? For example, I think the threadiverse could benefit from block lists, which auto update with new filter keywords. I’ve seen Lemmy users talk about how much time they spend crafting their filters to get the feed of content they want. It would be much nicer if you could choose and even combine block lists (e.g. US politics).

That to me is kind of the big thing, I mean I get the concept that it's trying for, but... the way its' advertised as decentralized, but in a way that... apparently no one else has made a working node. It seems just like old twitter, with nothing to prevent it from one day becoming modern twitter.
