In Dutch, we have the similar "zoals de award is, vertrouwt hij zijn gasten" (roughly "the way the innkeeper is, is how he trusts his guests (to be)").

I believe they're absolutely not street legal in the UK, nor in the EU. Those were never "ridiculous sized trucks" Walhalla to begin with (although I see more Rams than I care to, these days), so there's roughly zero chance those things will become mainstream here.
Heck, we have rain here, that's enough of a wankpanzer repellant.
This is a Sweep with choc switches and Nice!Nano knock-offs for controllers.
Oh, you probably mean the magnetic thingies... Here you go!
It is indeed!
The tech might be the same, but the models can certainly differ, and something that is trained on US-centric data gives US-centric results, which may not always be desirable.
Yeah, no, not anybody can host a server. Sure, you can host a PDS, but the AppView still wasn't open source last time I looked, and hosting a relay requires tens of terabytes of storage, not to mention the bandwidth to keep up.
Meanwhile, people host actual activitypub instances on repurposed routers and their car entertainment system...

It's not just about Bluesky" not being the proper and pure solution", it's about this being a temporary measure at best, and people don't seem to realize that.
Simple, the position doesn't require technical insight. At all. It should, but it doesn't.
Het is niet "het spelletje vuil spelen" als je de waarheid verkondigt, toch? 😉
Ik ben het er wel mee eens, deels, er mag best wat vaker uitgelegd worden "dit is onzin of schadelijk, en wel hierom". Idealiter zou de pers dat doen, maar die is schijnbaar een beetje met vakantie, of zo.
Maar aan de andere kant wil je niet op alle onzin ingaan, want het is makkelijker om veel onzin te spuien dan om het goed te duiden, dat ga je niet winnen en leidt af van je eigen boodschap. Die moet ook nog steeds duidelijk gebracht worden.
