I’m gay.

There are already “other Blueskies” out there, and you can already port your identity to them.

However, most users haven’t, and most users are not motivated to do so. Thus, OP created a website.

Google really seems to want to disincentivize people paying for YouTube Premium rather than just downloading an ad blocker.

Yes. That’s the idea.

The tradeoffs Bluesky made to achieve that means that Bluesky doesn’t have private posts. In fact, Bluesky doesn’t have private blocks.

WhiteWind is a blogging platform based on ATProto. Leaflet is another such platform.

What’s unique about them is that neither of them actually store any of the blog posts you publish. Those are stored entirely on your PDS (personal data server). Unfortunately, they do not currently federate with each other.

Which is why I discourage linking it.

lmao

Wafrn is an app that natively federates with Bluesky. It uses it’s own PDS and Appview, and relies on Blacksky’s Relay (which is operated independantly, not by Bluesky PBLLC). Wafrn also supports ActivityPub and federates with Mastodon instances without Bridging (as it’s actually ActivityPub-first).

Well this is !bluesky@lemmy.zip

This is excellent! All we need now is a PDS that anyone can sign-up for, that will let anyone upload as much uncompressed video as they want.

It’s two way bridging. The issue is that Bluesky users also must opt-in to having their posts be bridged to Mastodon (by following @ap.brid.gy).

I actually still don’t understand why one would be in favor of federation but opposed to bridging. In esscence, bridging is just federation.

Why?

I do wish that Lemmy instances would do this.

No, I don’t.

Is this it? Do I have to leave the country now?

Look. You don’t have to make a new post every time someone gets verified. I’m going to start removing these going forwards.

Btw if you use deer.social, you can forcibly unsubscribe from Bluesky Moderation Service.
