Mastodon’s moderation model is very different than BlueSky. BlueSky’s seems to be much better for targeted individuals and groups. But things aren’t entirely hashed out on either protocol or their implementations. We’ll see how it goes.
With BlueSky, it pretends to be similar, but the reality is that everything needs to go through their central server in order to be displayed on a timeline.
They have been saying that this is an implementation detail that will change when they open up that part of their implementation. Which is nice, but until that happens I’m only lukewarm in my optimism for Bluesky and the AT protocol.
On the other hand, every federated network has converged on a central host for the vast majority of accounts and data. That host has outsized influence over the standard used on the network and unencrypted acess to the majority of data. So I’m not sure what really matters to what extent.

I’ve known for years that Gene Roddenberry wrote lyrics for Theme from Star Trek so that he could receive 50% of the royalties, but it never occurred to me that I should try and find out what those lyrics were. However, the lyrics did come up recently in a nerdy trivia show I watch, “Uhm, Actually”, and now that I know...
The phone being inside you is probably why it died 😂
But on a serious note, I haven’t switched to passkeys because I don’t have a clear mental model of how to recover from losing both my phone and computer at the same time.
I hope it provided an accurate summary. I think the original was more verbose and detailed than they needed to be.
I think their main point boils down to what most people already know about dynamic vs static type systems. Prototyping is stunted with static type systems. It’s the same reason why so many people use Python but critical, large projects typically avoid Python or only use it as a glue/wrapper.
