Is there anything in Bluesky's design that prevents the company from attracting a critical mass of users and then restricting federation, or cutting it off entirely?

I don't think there are any other Instances aside from the default bsky.social‬ right now. It's only federated in theory and essentially a closed platform until that changes. Pretty sad that it gets all the attention instead of Mastodon.

Mastedon and the Fediverse need to get their shit together and make it easy for hyper casual basic people to use and understand.

Bluesky doesn't have any of that.
