They’ll get a two week vacation and maybe a promotion.

There’s an (official) version of the ubuntu logo with butts somewhere

You can unlock the bootloader of almost any phone in the EU.

Now, there will be literally no custom firmware for it, but its still possible.

That’s why I said small ones, they don’t crawl the entire network.

There is the freeourfeeds one coming soon.

If bsky goes out of business and shuts down their servers, will these continue to function?

Yes, but there will be far less people since everyone’s on bsky.social. Kinda like mastodon.social.

Does bsky still have any control at all over moderation?

Great question! Bluesky has individual moderation services you can subscribe to, and these hide/label posts for you.
bsky has no control over moderation if you are not on their servers, and you are not subscribed to their moderation service.

That’s mostly not true. You can block al the ai comms (I did, I’m not too much of a fan of Ai images) and its fine.

Both.

There’s a good few small ones.

It can work without relays anyway, an appview can crawl PDSes directly.

So, bluesky works differently to fedi.

A PDS stores your posts/comments/likes/blocks/articles/whatever. These all get crawled and saved to a relay.
An appview connects to a relay and sorts through all the posts, and indexes them.
They handle all the interactions, rather than passing messages between servers.

Anarcho-communsit, explicitly.

db0 isn’t pro-corpo-ai, its pro-ai-the-technology.

He is a dbzer0 user.

That;s a great way to put it.

Its like denouncing all of reddit because of one subreddit (not saying you shouldn’t denounce reddit).

Do you remember #freesydney.

Those people were delusional.

They aren’t pro corpo Ai.

They’re very much against the mass scraping/ddos ai companies are doing.

Hell, db0 contributes to !techtakes@awful.systems a lot.

Thats completely untrue :) .

app.wafrn.net is a separate app that connects to bluesky, atproto.africa is an alternate relay, deer.social is an alt appview.

You can use bluesky without relying on bluesky now.

Sure, but I don’t see why that would push people to use piefed specifically, since lemm.ee’s shutdown didn’t have anything to do with the lemmy software.

nothing that I’m aware of.

Popping up?

I was trying something on lemmy a while ago and it required an @context.

While I’m sure that would let me see the article, mastodon probably wouldn’t handle it well.
