Social networking startup and X competitor Bluesky is working on subscriptions. The company first announced plans to develop a new revenue stream based on the subscription model when detailing its $15 million Series A back in October. Now, mockups teasing the upcoming Bluesky subscription, along with a list of possible features, have been published to Bluesky’s GitHub.

Well... my wallet is certainly hurting after the latest $0 price increase on my $0 Mastodon subscription.

Quite. Servers aren't free and someone needs to pay the bills and increasingly distribute the moderation load. I'm happy with my Mastodon and following a few federated accounts on threads and bsky. But I'm not going to someone they are a bad person for choosing something that is familiar yet a little different while escaping x/itter.
