Comment on How to self-host all of Bluesky except the AppView (for now)
airportline@lemmy.ml 1 week ago- As far as I know, there aren’t any yet. Even if there were, I personally wouldn’t trust them for the same reason I wouldn’t use any Mastodon instance besides mastodon.social: if the PDS shuts down abruptly, your account is gone forever.
- Bluesky and ATProto are designed specifically to hide the ways in which it’s decentralized.
- I think this post does a good job visualizing how AtProto is different from ActivityPub.

Well, that diagram brings up an interesting point. In fediverse if the host dies the federated content can still live on (theoretically, I haven’t checked to see if they cull content from dead hosts) but ATProto would dictate that the host is missing and therefore all content associated with the host is now immediately 404.
