Bluesky outage double feature, part 1 (sh.itjust.works)

Bluesky managed to go offline practically entirely. I count on you folks to spork the hell out of this.

I have a question.

My partner has made an account on Bluesky because her favorite weather person got banned from Facebook but they made a Bluesky account.

I don't go on that kind of site, but I saw this post here. So my question is should she join some other instance of Bluesky that isn't Bsk.social so it won't crash?

Even if it is short crashes, I want her to have a good experience with decentralized networks and not go back to Xshitter.

There aren't any, hence the meme.

It is only notionally decentralised, she should just consider it as Xitter without the people actively trying to burn the world down with us still on it.

See also: Bluesky's fedi-washing and some context for that.

On the upside, it was fairly brief while they did an update, which is what all websites have to do from time to time, including a lot of Lemmy instances with the new version out. So it shouldn't spoil her user experience.

In fairness they're still rolling out their federation.

Individuals can host their own servers with limited users (10 I think?). The Guardian seems to have launched one judging by their new account @theguadian.com launched today.

And they're using an open prptocol, with a promise to transfer it to an independent standards body in the near future. Also Jack Dorsey no longer has anything to do with it which is another good sign.

Can I have the documentation? I believe you I just haven't found it myself (I'm bad at looking things up)

I'd be interested in self hosting my own Bluesky server if this is the case, maybe I could bridge it to my Misskey Server

@Turret3857 I don't have any documentation, but I do know that Friendica (which is a multi-protocol platform) created a Bluesky addon. Maybe their code might be a good example. #^https://github.com/friendica/friendica-addons/tree/develop/bluesky

Also, Bridgy Fed can be used by any ActivityPub-based platform to connect to Bluesky. That can work in the meantime until direct integration with AT Protocol is developed.
