  • Dorsey Dumps Bluesky, Embraces Musk’s X as “Freedom Tech.”
  • Jack Dorsey Departs Bluesky, Shifts Focus to Open Internet Protocols.
  • Ex-Twitter CEO Dorsey Ditches Bluesky, Hints at Reconciliation with Musk.

Jack Dorsey, co-founder of Twitter (now X), has abruptly stepped down from the board of Bluesky, a decentralized social media platform he championed after selling Twitter to Elon Musk. This move signals a potential shift in Dorsey’s focus and a possible thawing of relations with Musk.

Dorsey announced his departure on X itself, the platform that was once Twitter. He used this opportunity to promote his new philanthropic initiative funding open internet protocols, which he enthusiastically dubbed “freedom technology.” Interestingly, he also included X in this category, suggesting a newfound appreciation for the platform under Musk’s leadership.

don’t depend on corporations to grant you rights.
defend them yourself using freedom technology.

(you’re on one)

This apparent change of heart is further underscored by Dorsey’s drastic reduction of his following list on X. Now, it includes only three accounts: Musk himself, Edward Snowden (whistleblower on government surveillance), and Stella Assange, wife of the imprisoned WikiLeaks founder. This curated list suggests a potential reconciliation between Dorsey and Musk, who previously clashed over the direction of Twitter.

Bluesky, envisioned as a Twitter alternative free from central control, launched to the public in February. Initially seen as a refuge from the post-Musk Twitter chaos, Bluesky has been eclipsed by Meta’s Threads, which has emerged as the more popular alternative platform.

With his departure from Bluesky’s board, Dorsey’s future plans remain unclear, but his embrace of “freedom technology” suggests a continued focus on open and decentralized online spaces.
