@stefan Yeah, and some server types have very unreliable stats (or don't publish them at all), which leads me to believe the actual number of active accounts is larger, maybe significantly, than what fedidb says.
@stefan (plus I'm always curious as to how fedidb deals with vastly defederated servers)

@lexinova The thing is, there is actually a lot of momentum in the overall Atmosphere, with Blacksky already running a fully independent ATProto stack. And Eurosky and Northsky are working on this as well.
Plus all the other ATProto apps.
I don't know. My one prediction I shared recently was, we could easily see a more diverse Atmosphere where people can easily migrate between PDSes and AppViews and what have you, by the time Bluesky does enshittify.
We'll see!

@stefan for me the AT proto itself is CRAP.
and i hope this crap come down fast so we can concentrate on fediverse who is standardised contrary to this cheap FAKE decentralised system.

@lexinova Yeah, there are some ideas worth stealing, but definitely continue to root for the fediverse. Onwards!

@katzenberger I think we're going to find out soon.

@stefan the issue who make AT proto a crap is you cannot "just" join and make something that work alone and with them, or you need to copy the whole database.
the concept is plainly stupid and seem desined to "allow" decentralisation yet making it too expensive to actually achieve without them.
