A good thread on some of lessons learned pertaining to centralized dependencies revealed by the Bluesky April 15 outage. In particular, issues relating to #Eurosky and #Blacksky and the complexity of actually creating systems that federate on AT Protocol.

@ikuturso: ...it turned out they where not quite as independent as they'd hoped (it's a complicated system)

@mcc: Bluesky is easier for entry level users to grasp, but as soon as things start going wrong, it gets CONFUSING.

@mastodonmigration @ikuturso @mcc masochism is a thing, I guess.

People enjoy digital servitude, for some reason.

It does seem like people are jumping through hoops to use a network that is very hard, if even feasible, to federate, when a relatively simple effective solution exists.
