Social networking startup and X competitor Bluesky is working on subscriptions. The company first announced plans to develop a new revenue stream based on the subscription model when detailing its $15 million Series A back in October. Now, mockups teasing the upcoming Bluesky subscription, along with a list of possible features, have been published to Bluesky’s GitHub.

Lmao and all these idiots will gladly pay it because it's a slick corporate product, and they'll turn CryptoQueen Jay Graber into another fucking billionaire leech on our fucking system.

Great job everyone, meanwhile Mastodon still exists and you won't be contributing to building another billionaire crytpo freak to control our country's politics by using it. Also, all Mastodon features will continue to be free to everyone.

Jay Graber literally got her start in tech working on Zcash, a privacy-focused crypto-currency. She was happy to make a deal with Blockchain Capital, a Venture Capital firm made up entirely of cryptobros and 'effective altruism' freaks.

But I mean, this is America, where we say "Fuck community projects!" the corporations I hate and bitch about all the time pamper me like a baby and I must have that pampering!

"Corporations rob us of our dignity and independence."
