I’m speaking about the hypothetical situation where an app is blown from the face of the earth, not temporarily goes down. I thought that’s what the parent discussion was about. I’m not sure what we’re discussing now.
All I’m saying is that if a developer forever takes down some atproto app, another developer can put up a new app that shows the old app’s data because the data is actually inside the users’ repositories. This is similar to how if Microsoft ever discontinued Word, you could still open Word documents in Google Docs. Does that make sense?
Re: Blacksky, they do fully run on their own infra now. So it doesn’t depend on Bluesky’s database.
