          I’m just going to respond to what you said before you edited your comment to be a reaction gif.

          Since (as of November of last year) a majority of Bluesky’s user base is non-technical, they have don’t have the knowledge or motivation to switch to another PDS. If 30 million users joined mastodon.social, the fediverse would also be centralized.

          The only way for Bluesky to be decentralized by the metrics you use is for them to force users onto other PDSes.

            No, please respond to the gif. If my grandmother had wheels, would she be a wagon?

            BlueSky is centralized. Describing it as “federated” is being (intentionally, in your case) misleading.

              I don’t know what the point of the gif is, so I’m not going to respond to it.

              Is Matrix federated? That’s also centralized

                    BlueSky is centralized.
