In today's brief 'final update' they dropped the claim the cause was a "sophisticated Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack", and clearly do not want to discuss the subject any further.

But is this OK? Do Bluesky users have a right to truthful information about the outage and why it was so severe?

In April 2025, Bluesky attributed an outage to a DDoS attack only later to reveal that it was not.

This is absolutely true, but it does raise questions.
