Still is. Always will be.
Comment on Bluesky is more open than you think.

I really hate this attitude.
Most people who are against bluesky don’t even care about an open internet or whatever, they just want their protocol to win or whatever.

Sure seems like that’s what you’re doing. Notice how no one is against ATProto. Your post title is about BlueSky, not about ATProto.
We don’t care about the protocol, despite what you think. Your average Lemmy user isn’t on a standards body. We care about the network it facilitates.
Volunteers run the Fediverse, keeping it open. The former Twitter CEO runs BlyeSky. Want to start an actual open network running ATProto? Go for it.

I don’t think you should be critising bluesky when you don’t even know who the CEO is.

Good to hear!
The main difference is still that every work put into Bluesky.social can not be reused by other “servers”, unlike Lemmy

I’m not quite sure what you mean here to be honest.

If the Lemmy devs implement a feature, all Lemmy instances can update and get that feature.
Based on what you are saying, the people behind atproto.africa have to implement their own alternative to the Bluesky appview (I guess because they can’t reuse Bluesky.social code?)

No, they just want to develop it themselves so they have no reliance on bluesky.
