As far as I know, no one has demonstrated that they can successfully run their own instance and have it integrated with the main Bluesky infrastructure as easily as the spec authors have claimed.

A lot of complaints I’ve seen is that it’s bloated - it’s not only a system manager but also has a DNS relay, network manager, container manager, and so on.
That said, codifying service startup and managing them with cgroups is IMO MUCH better than init scripts that think running killall apache is a good way to stop a service.
Damn why does all the software I want to use end up being developed by bigoted assholes. First nix now this.
They’re still rambling about Hilary; they’ll still ramble about Biden.
Re blue sky, is anyone actually federating with it? I don’t know of any other instances besides the official one.
