A year ago, an investor asked what I'd build if I had the freedom. This is the answer: blacksky.cash for private payments and blacksky.tech for one-click infrastructure. We're just getting started.

How Blacksky grew to millions of users without spending a dollar

Blacksky Algorithms builds infrastructure for social groups to control how they show up online: how their feeds work, how harm is addressed, and how costs are covered.

What if your social media experience weren’t controlled by an algorithm or a corporation, but by your community? That’s the idea behind Blacksky, a decentralized project built on the AT Protocol — the same infrastructure powering Bluesky.

Making communities a true part of the protocol will encourage others to build things for those communities, start new communities, and hopefully foster models for self-sustainability.

What I’m learning is n----s don’t like Blacksky and I’m fine with it, I’ll push the line with it

A sophisticated exercise in Blackness.

I felt too young, and too cool, and too Black to be on Bluesky.
