I have trouble with using tone in my words but not interpreting tone from others’ words. Weird, isn’t it?

I support what they wanna do with a credible exit, but claiming that their goal is to or that they do make it easy for multiple different social networks (your PDS is not a new network, it’s data locally stored for the existing network) to communicate with each other is just false
By that point you may as well be an LLM. ChatGPT is pretty good at emulating writing styles.
username checks out
that’s a very normal bio
is it that bad
snoo stare intensifies
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Actually, my information is a bit outdated.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
That’s a different type of social network, which is also good, but the point is you are heavily incentivized to make another microblog relay.
