If you can build your own or selfhost each of the following to read and push back to all of the atProto protocol:
App
Backend Relay
Moderation
Algorithm
And you still say that's not decentralized I'm not sure what you're looking for nor what your definition of decentralization is.
If I log into BlueSky right now, can I see posts from other instances? This is a legitimate question since the twitter archetype doesn't appeal to me.
Instances aren't necessarily a thing in atProto because an instance usually refers to a single server. But you can see people's posts from selfhosted PDS/relays yes.
Then yeah, that sounds like federation to me.
Yes! Actually.
The full atproto up and running with bluesky is only in the last month or so, so people are finally starting to trickle out and set up their own services and hosts.
It's actually very promising and hopeful.
TIL, thanks!
