How Decentralized Is Bluesky Really? https://dustycloud.org/blog/how-decentralized-is-bluesky/
A technical deep-dive, since people have been asking me for my thoughts. I'll expand a bit on some of the key points here in a thread. 🧵
Yes, you can host your own PDS. You can also host your own blog. But try hosting your own PDS and NOT hosting a relay or AppView and you can't do much.
Blogs are decentralized, Google is not.
PDS'es are decentralized, Bluesky is not.
We're getting to the point where we get to why I'm so damn frustrated about this and have been biting my tongue until it nearly comes detached from my mouth: users THINK Bluesky is decentralized because they're TOLD Bluesky is decentralized

Ich habe gestern eine Mail von diasp.de bekommen, einem Diaspora-Server, auf dem ich einen Testaccount hatte. Die Nachricht besagt, dass der Server leider nach 14 Jahren Betrieb zum Jahresende geschlossen wird.
14 Jahre sind eine lange Zeit, insofern danke ich den Leuten, die dafür gesorgt haben, dass der Dienst 14 Jahre lang aufrecht erhalten wurde.
Die Mail endet mit dem Hinweis, dass das Fediverse weiter wächst und man sich bei fedidb.org umsehen solle, um ein neues Zuhause zu finden. Laut der Serverstatistik betrifft dies immerhin noch 86 Leute, die im letzten Monat auf dem Server aktiv waren.
Cher et polluant, scarifiant les espaces naturels montagneux d'humains lattés et de remontées mécanique odieuses.
