I just received my invite code today and took a quick look around the app. Like Mastodon I do not prefer microblogging platforms. And that’s all I know about Bluesky.

So, what can you tell me about this project?

  • @Natanael you seem to continue to focus on PDSes even though I explicitly said it doesn’t matter which PDS you’re on, the secondary centralization (and thus control) happens in the “reach” layer, outside of what PDSes do in ATproto.

    In other words, changing a PDS gives you way, way less agency in BS, compared to agency you get with changing an instance on Fedi.

    BS is designed to make that secondary centralization happen, and to be where the real power in the system is.
