I'm going to have to apologize a bit for the BlueSky slander I've been spreading. I did not realize it's actually open source and federated too. It just has its own protocol instead of ActivityPub.

I'm sticking with Mastodon, but I'm a little less upset now about BlueSky's recent prominence

@zephyrxero ....no. it's not federated. It has parts that are decentralized, but those parts still send their data to relays which are all owned and operated by BlueSky, thus cancelling out any decentralization in the first place. They're doing that intentionally and deceptively.

No decentralization, no federation.
