It seems strange to me how BlueSky chose to implement an entirely different protocol when ActivityPub exists. My assumption for this was "for privacy". As in, not being completely public. Looking at their FAQ, they state that account portability was the main reason, but that doesn't seem right. Given that I have been able to port accounts from instance to instance on the Fediverse. My last reply to this thread may have not been obvious, but I'm genuinely interested on the reasons why.

Anyhow, this project is interesting and I do hope more people use it to share their stuff. Have come across various links and I don't want to create yet another account for social media. As another sibling said, wish this was easier to do. But it isn't the fault of this project.
