       @DarkMahesvara @japananon @sun were they ever federated?? did they even attempt??i thought it was a weird snake-oil tactic to get people that care about freedom of speech to come to the platform, not that it attracted many of those people anyways!

       @ehhh @DarkMahesvara @japananon @sun Bluesky has their own federation protocol so it was never compatible with Mastodon nor the rest of the Fediverse.

       @MoeBritannica @DarkMahesvara @japananon @sun ...i have many whys to that info but basically i'm guessing that less than 1% of their userbase makes use of said federation.

       @ehhh @sun @DarkMahesvara @MoeBritannica BlueSky uses a protocol called ATProto, but the only real self-hosted part is the "Personal Data Server" (PDS), which hosts your account data. The components that control the social feed and the relaying of messages is largely controlled by the BlueSky devs.It's a lot like what LBRY/Odysee did... technically your account data can be self-hosted and portable, but the cost and difficulty of self hosting the relay/feed portion is beyond the reach of most individuals, so the only ones who can afford to do it are larger organizations with deeper pockets. Technically decentralized on paper, but de facto centralized in practice.

       @japananon @sun @DarkMahesvara @MoeBritannica holy frick...also, i just found out that Jack Dorsey gave up on Bluesky to work on other decentralized tech like Nostr, which actually works LMFAO. But truly, we do have the leftoid's version of Gab before GTA VI and it's always funny when the community implodes and its netizens bitch about not having basic features 🤣
