Phase one is to create a PDS that securely hosts data in Canada, away from political persecution of 2SLGBTQIA+.

Phase two and beyond will include our own AppView and improved moderation tools.

These networks will exist side by side with bluesky and allow interaction per usual. Source

Don’t we already have Mastodon ?

This is for Bluesky users who still want to be on Bluesky, but don't want their data stored under US jurisdiction, or don't want to rely on Bluesky's moderation.

So even though blusky isn’t federated, the protocol still allows for using different domains to interact on the platform? I need to study how it works better.

Edit: stupid autocorrect

They actually do use the word "federated" to describe ATProto, but most people here understand that word to mean "ActivityPub," so I wouldn't. You can read more about it here.
