The Founder and former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Twitter, Jack Dorsey has created a new social platform called ‘Bluesky.’
This is coming barely one week after the United States’ richest billionaire, Elon Musk acquired Twitter with a whopping $44 billion.
However, while Musk is busy resetting the microblogging website including the speculation to sack half of the workers, Dorsey has concluded plans to launch a new site with over 30,000 people signing up for Bluesky within two days of the announcement.
According to Insider, Dorsey announced the launching of Bluesky and revealed that the new app will offer “a new foundation for social networking which gives creators independence from platforms, developers the freedom to build, and users a choice in their experience.”
Dorsey said in 2019 that Twitter was funding work into developing “an open and decentralized standard for social media.”

Maybe using source code from Twitter? Musk may want to look at that…Dorsey doesn’t own any of it anymore.

I don’t understand why Musk didn’t do the same. Twitter was a tainted investment.

Was there no anti-competition agreement within a specified time period? That’s standard.

This is not designed to take down Twitter. Remember Dorsey did NOT sell his shares. A freeper opined on an earlier thread that this move will "segregate" the left (Blue Sky) from the center and right (Twitter), with two sets of moderation rules. Sounds like a plan. Wish the U.S. could form a separation agreement and work it out.

It amazes me that Musk’s lawyers did not get Dorsey bound up in a strong non-competition clause in the acquisition agreement.
