     @BeAware @Shoesmithlc Nah, they rather implied the opposite, that they don't intend to do that: https://www.wired.com/story/bluesky-ceo-jay-graber-wont-enshittify-ads/

     Also you didn't say there will be advertisers at some point, you said "they sell your data to advertisers" 🙃

     @exerra the issue is, they're promoting it as decentralized right now...which it is not outside of BridgyFed.

     I hope they continue to develop it and it'll someday be possible to use ATproto without BlueSky. However, that's currently not the case and a bad look for them to promote decentralization as a feature.

     @BeAware@social.beaware.live @Shoesmithlc@dmv.community Eehhh, pretty sure they're making their own federated protocol named AT Proto. It's very different from ActivityPuh and it seems nicer in a few aspects, but worse in others. They're very cautious and risk averse about it though, only somewhat recently let every PDS (self hosted user instance kinda thingy) federate with their servers without manual approval.
     
     I haven't delved deep into it and currently tired so some other time. Seems interesting though.
