Yes, but you don’t need to use Lemmy or go to Lemmy to read items of the feed (if said item is a link outside lemmy, ofc). It’s called a link aggregator for a reason.

People don’t care about decentralization as long as they have a credible exit; in fact, many may prefer the features of centralization. Bluesky also has an algorithm.

TL;DR: Bluesky isn’t feasibly federated due to hardware demands of self-hosting the relay—which would require every instance to host the same, synced copy of the entirety of Twitter everywhere—among other things, but is great at providing what its committed corporation calls a centralized “credible exit“: “if Bluesky Social PBC goes out of business or loses users’ trust, other providers can step in to provide an equivalent service using the same dataset and the same protocols”

Actually, my information is a bit outdated. Personal data servers for Bluesky are fully self-hostable and have official container images, but firehoses (which control your feed) require a bit of tinkering. I’m not sure if Bluesky has published their own algorithm for doing the feed, even though everyone seems to be able to write their own feed algorithm and execute it.

Yes. But even though Bluesky is kinda open source, they’re not making it much easy to self-host. Last I heard, one’s best option for self-hosting was some unofficial and experimental docker image.

Well you can, but you have to write quite a bit of code for the server and tinker

I’ve not read much about their protocol yet, is there a proposal somewhere on what changes are needed?

Part of that is what they’re saying: If you want to make Mastodon prevail over Bluesky, you should go start developing and encouraging instead of just insulting everyone. You’re the person demanding everyone use and support an inferior product developed by much better people here.

It’s like saying sky is blue.

dbzer0 is only as thematic as ml is imo

This PR doesn’t add that, but anecdotally I’m fairly sure it already works for Mastodon… Not a Mastodon user, so I can’t find any examples though. They definitely show on Mbin tho.

speaking of which… when will the “upload from URL” button actually work‽
oh wait, they removed it?

…yay?

basically what cabbage said. same goes for mastodon posts in subs

All of Mastodon’s moderation has always been done and federated by individual instances.

that’s a… specific… instance name…

it makes sense!
