Good that it's fedi, bad that it's threads. They definitely have the resources to run a government Mastodon instance, but no let's stay beholden to the tech companies 😑

And none of them appear to have joined Bluesky yet, a competing decentralized social network running on its own AT protocol that recently opened general signups.

good.

I’d rather have them on Bluesky/AT than Threads, to be perfectly honest…

Neither is good

Eh, from what I could gather from both specs ATProto does address some shortcomings of ActivityPub, so the idea has some technical merit. While a lot of the current Fediverse seems to have settled on AP, it’s not like it’s the be-all and end-all of federated protocols either.

Maybe you’re just talking about the company behind it?

AT does have some advantages, but I strongly prefer the whole philosophy behind AP.

And yes, bsky doesn't really inspire me with confidence.
