It's shameful. Reddit is a shell of its former self.

There are many types of Bluesky servers. This post is about ATProto Relays, which consolidate all the data across the network into a single location. They are necessary for efficiency, but they are extremely expensive to run. Currently, there is only one ATProto relay, but there is an initiative to launch a third-party relay.

Angry, disappointed users react to Bluesky's upcoming blue check mark verification system
Reply in thread
Most of the complaints I’ve seen were about Bluesky’s lack of a formal verification system.
They could never figure out how the current system of checking the username.

Huh. Hexbear, the instance, gets its namesake from this photograph:
I wonder how the cryptocurrency ended up with the same name.

Introducing Northsky - a non-profit Bluesky alternative
Reminder: there is no such thing as a "Bluesky instance." The way ATProto works is nothing like the way ActivityPub works.

This is for Bluesky users who still want to be on Bluesky, but don't want their data stored under US jurisdiction, or don't want to rely on Bluesky's moderation.

What will it take to grow open source Lemmy, ActivityPub, ATProtocol, & other platforms/apps/websites?
As the growth of Bluesky showed, most users do not care about decentralization as much as they care about usability. In his talk at ATmosphereConf last month, Paul Frazee explained that this is why his team built ATProto instead of using ActivityPub.
What I'd like to see is someone build an ATProto forum like Lemmy, and for it to be fully federated with Lemmy using Bridgy Fed.
EDIT: I know about frontpage.fyi. It does not have communities/subforums, so I would consider it more of a Hacker News replacement.

How is content like this banned on .ml for being "political"?
Reply in thread
Knowing what I know about the politics of the .ml admins, this doesn't make any sense unless it was removed by a community moderator.
