i love that bluesky just keeps getting away with it like this
"oh well they said people can run their own instances, so that must be true!"
nope, you just can't run a bluesky instance, can we please recognize this fact and stop giving the massive corporation the benefit of the doubt?
Not that I disagree with the spirit of what you're saying, but bluesky is not even close to a "massive" corporation. According to this they have a net worth of $7.23m, going as low as $600k in October last year. I know of plenty of local restaurants and other small businesses with a higher net worth than that.
