I don’t understand what the words in your comment mean? Can you eli5
Someone shared different services using at protocol already
Link aggregator similar to lemmy: https://frontpage.fyi/
Blogging service: https://whtwnd.com
Both of these services appear to be dependent on BlueSky. I.e., if BlueSky ceased existing, or cut them off from its API, they’d die. In that way, they’re not that different from “Log in with Facebook” or similar.
One could theoretically make one’s own independent AT Protocol network, but not in a way that interoperates with BlueSky as a peer. You’re either a subsidiary part of its network or you don’t exist as far as it’s concerned, which is a much poorer value proposition than ActivityPub and related protocols.
Are you talking about blusky's indexer?
