As a highly visible fediverse dev, I used my platform to attack BlueSky and paint ActivityPub as the better alternative, ignoring the vibrant ecosystem that ATProto has become, and all the hard work many have put in to help bridge our networks.
I am sorry, we're stronger together and both protocols can succeed together.
It won't happen again, and I look forward to collaborating together

️@dansup @quillmatiq I think attacking ATProto is unnecessary. Critizing Bluesky's role and federation progress, on the other hand, may very well get some deserved criticism.

️@dansup @quillmatiq ATProto is doomed just like the old "look at how open we are" APIs of VC backed social media giants.

@capriciousday@mastodon.social @dansup@mastodon.social @quillmatiq@mastodon.social you can take that position if you want, it’s a nonsensical one. Your statement speaks like you know better than many people including the EU which I highly doubt. Governments, nonprofits and more are getting behind ATProto that should tell you something.

@damon looking it up as far as I can tell the EU does not officially back or use ATProto in any particular capacity. Happy to be proven wrong

️@dansup Thanks, Dan - I apologize if my responses came out the wrong way in a heated moment as well. We can all do better.
There are a lot of folks in that community who are excited to collab and make the open social web wider, more diverse, and understandable for average users. We're stronger together.
As I said in private, I appreciate you, I respect and am astounded by the work you put in, and you're a core part of the OSW.
Thank you, and I hope we can build bigger than we already are.
