and one could argue that the desire to center on one protocol is inherently limiting your agency already

on ATProto as it stands there’s already a handful of options that enable you to operate entirely without any of Bluesky’s code
The atmosphere is broken up differently than the Fediverse so it’s hard to compare, but the options are there

I think you’re missing the critical point: by making this AP vs ATProto you’re already having the wrong conversation

I mean I already spend a lot of time talking about AI and complex JS frameworks, what's one more thing at this point

Racist internet losing their shit over black Snape brings a sense of familiarity that I missed from the Right of 15 years ago
These are the same people who threw a tantrum over a red cup
And the same people that call other people overly sensitive snowflakes

not trying to butt in here to self-promo, mostly to say I agree with this so hard that I built an app around it
You can log in with your Mastodon account and it shows you all of the links people are sharing
You can also create lists like different news feeds (I have a few full of different Flipboard accounts, for example)

Here you can expect radical leftist rhetoric like “caring about others”

We should really get back to “wow that’s stupid I’m going to ignore you” instead of boosting the hell out of stupid content

She's dead, Mike made up that last part to make the party feel less shitty about what happened
I wanted to believe him right at the start, but it's just a story
While it's supposed to be "up to our interpretation", that doesn't apply to a betting market, she's dead, she's obliviated, lost forever in interdimensional chaos

Yes but I don't actually have a pet

This isn't to say that Bluesky shouldn't moderate their own server(s) and the like
But if they were able to control the whole of the platform that would lead to major problems down the road

Isn’t it crazy how the party who wanted to end socialism, protect free speech, and stop corruption has done:
- Socialism
- Infringed on free speech
- Done corruption in *plane* sight

Keep in mind that the only philosophy texts that survived from the Greeks and even earlier are the ones people deemed worth keeping
Nowadays we have the misfortune of keeping all of the takes ever, not just the good ones
