  • Awesome!

  • True

  • This site currently measures the concentration of user data for active users: in the Fediverse, this data is on servers (also known as instances); in the Atmosphere, it is on the PDSes that host users' data repos. All PDSes run by the company Bluesky Social PBC are aggregated in this dataset, since they are under the control of a single entity. Similarly, mastodon.social and mastodon.online are combined as they are run by the same company.

  • True

  • So why does everyone keep referring to Bluesky as decentralized or even comparable to the fediverse

    They call it marketing, I call it propaganda.

  • PDSes only store user data. These are full instances that can be used to browse the network. The idea is to make your account really yours. Bluesky is hosting most of them. But there are some people who do it on their own.

    But bluesky controls much more important components in the network, namely the Relay and AppView.

    If Bluesky decides to cut off your PDS you are pretty much alone.

    Bluesky is pretty much a centralized platform like Twittler.

  • Fediverse @lemmy.world

    How decentralized Bluesky is compared to the Fediverse.

  • That would be too obvious

  • That's pathetic

  • That may be true but it makes the Lemmyverse much more robust in the long term.

    I don't care if I have to subscribe to multiple similar communities or see some posts multiple times, as long as not one or just a few people control the whole discourse.

  • That's why redundant communities are important. Admins and mods make different decisions and heavily shape culture in the community.

    Many don't like it but I think it's a beautiful feature of the Fediverse.

  • If you need private repositories for commercial projects (e.g. because you represent a company or are a developer that needs a space to host private freelance projects for your clients), we would highly recommend that you take a look at Forgejo. Forgejo is the Git hosting software that Codeberg runs. It is free software and relatively easy to self-host. Codeberg does not offer private hosting services.

  • Why not doing both? Supporting more independent platforms and advocating for pro-consumer laws

  • Still a very inefficient OS
