Your order is already “algorithm based” and has been for like a decade, companies routinely adjust pricing and even selection based on your ad/surveillance footprint, say hiking the price of it think you got a payday recently (based on spending patterns etc). I don’t go to McDonald’s but the fact that Amazon does this is very well documented

I suspect the ones that prefer ai are like that for the same reason that I preferred books and other kids preferred tv

That’s just life on the Internet/fediverse in general, there’s a constant churn of the small websites/instances as people inevitably burn out. You gotta be mentally prepared for it. I’m really sad since .ee was one of the few good instances that federated with the unpopular ones too
The only solution is improvements to the protocol so migrating instances is less painful. A different form of identity (key-based rather than domain based) would be cool to let us keep handles across instances

No, it’s about someone building a car for you while also driving their own car. The car they built for you is unquestionably good even if you don’t like where they drive their own version. I don’t think it’s unfair for them to ask compensation for maintenance on YOUR version

- Comment on Bluesky has started honoring takedown requests from Turkish government 1 month ago:
yeah that was my bad I might be a little stupid.
I got confused between the relay crawling pdses to store their records for retransmission vs an appview storing records for serving them to clients. Both involve processing similar (v large) amounts of data, but the latter is actually more expensive because you’re also transforming the data to make it useful to clients.
They have said that in production, their appview takes up about 30 servers while the relay takes only one. Apologies for the rude tone of the post bsky.app/profile/why.bsky.team/…/3lku2o3n6es22

Censorship requests from the Turkish government are only being applied in the official bluesky app. Third-party apps continue to show censored posts. Feels like that might be relevant
- Comment on Bluesky has started honoring takedown requests from Turkish government 1 month ago:
Several people have self hosted relays. Afaik nothing that anyone has used in “production”, everyone just uses the default one. I expect that will change as people figure it out, and trust in bsky pbc drops.
Example of self hosting bsky.app/profile/why.bsky.team/…/3lkwg2djrfk23
The code to run a relay is here github.com/bluesky-social/indigo

I am functionally a pr person for atproto (bluesky) on here because people repeat so much disinfo, and I have someone is wrong on the internet syndrome 😭
However, atproto and bluesky are distinct and I am pretty appalled at a fair amount of their recent decisions, esp this one
- Comment on Bluesky has started honoring takedown requests from Turkish government 1 month ago:
That’s only if you want to maintain a full archive. You don’t actually have to store a full archive to run a relay
- Comment on Bluesky has started honoring takedown requests from Turkish government 1 month ago:
That there are actually multiple relays. There’s no hard coded single relay, that would be ridiculous.
There is a hard coded relay in the official bluesky app, just like it has a hard coded moderation service. But both of those are changeable with third party appviews/clients
