How decentralized is Bluesky really? (dustycloud.org)

This is a pretty great, long form post about the structure of Bluesky, and how it's largely kinda pretending to be decentralized at the moment. I'm not trying to make a dig at it. I've enjoyed the platform myself for a while, but it's good to learn more about how it actually works.

It’s one of the best features of bsky!

Lists, feeds, starter packs, and moderation tools that work, have all led to a very vibrant and engaging social media experience!

The user base isn’t afraid of quickly dealing with antisocial behavior.

You can tell which way your media outlets position themselves by how they report on this aspect of bsky. Egalitarians will cast it in a positive light, while Elitists will cast it in a negative light.

IMO it is THE killer feature, and it’s why Bluesky is going to win this round of the internet wars.
