Gotta make the right wingers feel safe enough to harras everyone else...

The company doesn’t want to be known as just a leftist or liberal version of Twitter; it wants to be a home where many different communities can build out their networks and thrive, without the problems of a centralized social network. However, much of the community that adopted Bluesky did so as they no longer felt represented on Twitter/X, which became more right-leaning under new owner Elon Musk.

If they're banning people from all of Bluesky for a post, it's centralized. I don't know why they keep saying they're decentralized.

It's purely marketing and I wish it would stop getting repeated. BlueSky is centralized and a for-profit company.
