What Dorsey is saying is so factually incorrect.

The AT protocol is open source and so are the moderation tools, as Graber says; bluesky is already more open than twitter has ever been.

I guess he just wants to stir the pot.

I think it is worse then that..

I believe that Jack really wanted to have Bluesky develop a protocol they could later migrate twitter into, but after Elon took over it was clear to anyone that ATProto at twitter would never happen..

I am not sure who was responsible for it, but someone made a good job making sure Bluesky would be independent from twitter despite their investment.. So after Elon took over twitter then Bluesky had to decide what to do and ended up becoming its own independent thing..

And since using twitter to bootstrap the ATProto network was no longer happening, they also needed someone to do it instead and deploying their own instances was the logical next step..

So if anything Jack is partially responsible for what Bluesky became since as far as i can remember he supported Elon from the start..

And that is basically what one of the devs said in response to Jack BS claims..
