So… @jdp23@blahaj.zone drew my attention to this: https://berjon.com/ap-at/ and as you might imagine, I have some thoughts—though not really about running AP on top of ATProto. I'm more interested in the quote below, which is, I'd say, a pretty solid encapsulation of one of the sales pitches behind #Bluesky. Specifically, it posits an inherent conflict between social media users and server admins, and posits ATProto as a way of shifting power toward users. The reality is more complicated than that, IMO.
Good read. BlueSky basically gives people the feeling that they’re in control, but actually is in control of everything. It’s like a house with no electricity.
