   #Bluesky engineer confirmed to me that a PDS can opt out of BGS indexing.

   Which also tells me that AT protocol (and Bluesky) will allow defederation.

   So there you have it, @gruber.

   If you use AT protocol, you will be able to defederate from other servers for both petulant and non-petulant reasons.

     If defederation is possible, does that mean #Bluesky is doomed too?

     😱

     @ablackcatstail The “doom” is sarcasm.

     I’m referring to this thread: https://mastodon.social/@atomicpoet/110330628531561624

     @atomicpoet It doesn't necessarily mean that Blue Sky is doomed. It means that Blue Sky is going to have to play fairly or risk defederation. The cool thing about the #fediverse is that it is still decentralized. Corpos don't have any kind of control over it and I'd like to keep it that way.
