Bluesky will be built using open-source software, which means that no single company will own it. To make it happen, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey intends to hire a team of five coders.
These five coders would create the platform as well as the algorithms that would control what users saw when they used the platforms.
These algorithms would be pre-programmed to steer users away from polarizing content and to hide any hate speech. This would shift the burden of content moderation away from the individual social media platforms and onto the program.
While Bluesky is often referred to as a Twitter offshoot, and Twitter is funding the project, Jack Dorsey’s vision is to create a program that will eventually run itself.
Because it will be open source, anyone will be able to use it or integrate it with their social media platform.
What is Bluesky social media?
The Bluesky project is a free open-source social media project that aims to connect existing and future social media platforms. This means that if you have a Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter account, you will be able to interact with all other users on the platform.
