Twitter/X doesn’t have a problem with corporate accounts. They murdered reach on brand accounts in the algorithm loooong ago (mid 2010s), you basically will never see company tweets in the feed even if you follow them.

I think it’s more the fact that bluesky’s core demographic are angry political obsessives (who are angry enough about politics to join a new social network over said politics). I can’t think of a worse way to create a community of people than filtering by “I’m angry about political stuff.”

Turns out the old social norm of “don’t talk politics with neighbors” was an example of a good Chestertons fence.

Yes, they want it to be an echo chamber for one-sided political rants instead. Which is what it is now.
