I'm the same. When writing python I write some lines, run and test, write some more, run and test... with Rust I bash out lines of code for an hour then have the compiler and Clippy help me fix it all afterward.

You have to remember, this is an industry that thinks having code without syntax errors was too unreasonable a requirement for XHTML, there is no reason to expect them to know anything beyond div and maybe a dozen other tags.
Not everyone wants to debate politics all the time. Sometimes they just want to exist as trans people, share posts with their other queer friends and enjoy their day.
That seems like a good goal. I want to chat with friends about formula one or whatever, not have to have everything messed up by some weirdo who always wants to debate whether minorities have rights.
From the perspective of the Bluesky team, you shouldn't care about the treatment of queers or people of color, rather you are supposed to care about more important things like making sure your monkey jpegs aren't funged.
These tech bubbles are leaving nothing, absolutely nothing but destruction of the commons.

What happens if something goes wrong and you have to rely on contacting a human in Google of all places? Sorry, you have a copyright strike on your YouTube account, now you can't file taxes! Hopefully you have enough followers on Twitter than you can get them to pay attention.
Like, during WW2 the UK was being bombed and ration books and supply shortages were the order of the day. They look back on their endurance of the conditions inflicted upon them as a source of national pride, have to imagine that is the case for many in the sanctioned countries too.
Mastodon is social like a quiet pub. Twitter and Bluesky are social like a crowd at a concert.
You give the employee IntelliJ or some IDE of your choice and a way of uploading the transforms into your application and they'll work away. All the complaints about namespaces and the like that your hear online? Never hear from them, they dont think about it, just stick the declarations up in the top of the file and work away.
Abandoning XML has been one of softwares biggest mistakes.
What a pity.
It would be a horrible existence to value anything else. What reason is there to get up in the morning if you think things couldn't be better?
A big part of this is that people were concatenating XML together manually, to predictable disaster.
Nowadays they use JSX and TypeScript, far more strict than XML ever was, and absolutely love it.
It doesn't need to be some big conspiracy: they see the web as an application runtime instead of being about documents and information, don't give a fuck about XML technologies, don't use them internally and don't feel anyone else needs to.
You can see it clear as day in the github thread that they weren't asking permission, they were doing it no matter what, all their concerns about security just being the pretext.
It would have been more honest of them to just tell everyone to go fuck themselves.
Client side templating, custom elements, validation against schemas, native databinding for forms, we could have had it all and threw it away; instead preferring to rebuild it over and over again in React until the end of time.
Crypto has no purpose outside the wild west. Any attempts at applying a sheen of respectability over it all is just trying to find new bagholders.
