Your knowledge is wrong. They opened up federation in February. There’s currently people from fedi that have Atproto PDS

My take is that they wanted to do things differently after extensive research. People here get their panties in a bunch but they talked about why, it’s as much culturally as it was technically. They wanted to mirror a more web like experience and some of the experiences mirrored on Big Social platforms. It makes sense to not tether user identities to instances, that’s not real freedom, especially when data portability is poor and there’s not true account migration on fedi. Fedi doesn’t really empower the individual and many people are oddly critical of Bluesky individualism, yet that’s how the dominant online experience is and more so mirrors real life. People come from Big Social platforms that are driven by their individual experiences so their transition to Bluesky is more natural than it would be on Mastodon. In neither place do you have people telling people how to use their own damn accounts! But, that happens on Mastodon Overall, they have some cool ideas and concepts, I’m happy to see any ideas and spaces that lessen the strong armed centralised grip of Big Social.

That’s where my frustrations with “consent fedi” come into play. They want to force people to comply with their views. They could go into allow list federation and connect with those that views thing similarly yet they don’t.

Yeah, people don’t really care about decentralisation nor federation. People want an easy experience where everyone is

The app also supports Bluesky and the interview is with the developer of SoraSns. That is why Bluesky is mentioned

You are very welcome

Sure. I can’t speak for Pixie but I’ve seen several posts where Ro openly stated people could come have a civilised discussion with him and even gave examples of where he had those discussions and they paid off. He’s also admitted his faults. Also, while the instance in question does have some really good people idk if I want to call it well moderated. My first experience with death threats was due to that instance and I’ve seen them do it to others. There are also other admins whom have made posts about why they defederated from .lgbt with lengthy posts and blogs, so it’s not just specific to TBS

I don’t know yet there have been several instances that shut down do to finances. Tell me how does something shut down due to finances if it’s not costly for the person? The Fediverse is also much larger than Lemmy.

This is well said and beautifully put

There is a term for that Ephebophilia generally covers ages 15 to 18

What are MultiReddits and how do they work?
