   Nobody on Bsky has mansplained federation or the Internet to me yet, which is a plus.

     @mattl I'd wager that most of the userbase doesn't even know what federation is

     @mattl I feel like Bluesky was a major let down. We already have decentralized social media (Fediverse), if anything we need to work on how to give it the reach of a Twitter. Bluesky is proprietary, and the protocol is under an MIT license, instead of being a web standard. I can’t help but see that Bluesky isn’t a benefit to anyone but itself. Ironic, considering it’s incorporated as a benefit corporation (which I normally support).

     @pmarrone why do you think it’s proprietary?

     @pmarrone I think everything was released from the server to the mobile apps.

     @mattl because at least the servers appear to be. I know the protocol is in the MIT license. Licensing isn’t the issue for me though.
