The likely answer to this is that there will always have to be a large corporation at the heart of Bluesky/ATProto, and the network will have to rely on that corporation to do the work of abuse mitigation, particularly in terms of illegal content and spam. This may be a good enough solution for Bluesky’s purposes, but on the economics alone it’s going to be a centralized system that relies on trusting centralized authorities.
I mean Ive been working on figuring out how to use this: https://github.com/itaru2622/bluesky-selfhost-env
Ive gotten pretty close, just a few small issues now I'm trying to figure out. I mean as long as its FOSS and self host able idgaf if its corporate. The CIA made SELinux and its one of the tools I use daily. FUTO makes GrayJay and its another tool that I use daily.
I hate corpos, don't get me wrong, but if theyre actually giving you Something for free (free as in freedom, not as in free beer) I dont see the problem.
The CIA didn't make SELinux. Not sure where you got that from.
It was the NSA lol
They confused 3 letter evil agencies -- not surprising
