While you can critisise its decentralisation, it is still in development. There is an effort (https://freeourfeeds.com/, cory doctorow supports it) to host atproto infrastructure outside of bsky's control.
it is not still in development decentralisation on bluesky is vapourware it will never exist it's just part of the standard EEE cycle it's marketing they'll say it didn't work out and cancel it the second they become the predominant platform
You dropped these: ,....
Punctuation aside, I find that hard to believe, they literally started out as a way to make twitter decentralised after jack dorsey got ✨inspired✨ by a paper on decentralisation. Decentralization on bluesky does exist, they got a lot of flack for banning a trans person who pointed out their head of t&s liked barely legal porn, but she just made her own pds (because bsky is open source) and is now untouchable. All it needs is account moving and to fix up did:plc a bit and it should be decent. I'd reccomend reading @cwebber@social.coop s article about it, points out its strenghts and weaknesses quite well. https://dustycloud.org/blog/how-decentralized-is-bluesky/ https://dustycloud.org/blog/re-re-bluesky-decentralization/ . I myself am annoyed at bluesky simply because I am a big fan of mastodon, but its already won.
