One is a product with investors selling itself on promises of decentralization (bluesky), the other is a genuine community tool (mastodon) that actually provides decentralization.
Bluesky is mit licensed, if it goes bad what's to stop a fork? Once there's interop between the protocols will it matter at all?
There are a million ways open platforms can be undermined, especially when serious money stands to be gained from it. See basically all of human history as exhibit A...
Can you give a specific example of how bluesky could be?
Not 100% sure but I don't think anything would stop either a fork or a new app that uses the same protocol.
I really don't see how it could matter tbh
I think lemmy should get atproto support too.
