Say bluesky is applying content moderation techniques I disagree with.
What steps do I have to follow to get the majority of users to see my content?
Another example. Let's define decentralisation in terms of bus factor:
How many companies could go bust today before most users would notice?
> To make the comparison fair
Okay, so let's build that, then we can actually talk about building a decentralized network on atproto.
How do I build a relay that fetched all content from people I follow, plus all replies to those posts (no matter who sent them), plus automated backfilling if I click on the profile of someone who I'm not following yet?
From what I understand, in bluesky the PDS does not know about replies to a post. So I'd need to scrape the entire network anyway, no matter what, even if I only store some of it.
And every blue-stodon instance would have to scrape every single PDS. So it's a much much worse O(n²) issue, isn't it?
