Swifties say they’re leaving X over Elon Musk’s support of Donald Trump—and the rhetoric that has erupted on the platform following Trump’s win.

Has bluesky actually federated yet? Happy to follow from Mastodon but I’m not joining another corporate social media (is this the right term? You know what I mean)

@along_the_road @QuantumEyetanglement Bluesky is partially decentralized. You can setup your own PDS (the server where your data is stored). There are two central parts: The directory of all DID (comparable with a DNS) and the message relay.

They have got a repository with their code that is uses MIT as license.

Thanks for the response but can you ELI5? Can I actually follow/interact with someone from bluesky (via Mastodon specifically)?

Yes and no, they are not natively connected but there are bridges between that can be used

Thanks this makes sense!
