my account is back on blacksky, bypassing the bluesky remote moderation

blacksky.community/profile/did…

you can see it from blacksky and other users of the blacksky infa, but not i think from users of the bluesky infra

i'm sure i'll use it from time to time

(it's uh not very fast)

can confirm, it's NOT visible from vanilla Bluesky (no results found) 😐

I'm preparing a deep dive into #ATproto and their #OpenWashing and I find it really disingenuous to compare the Fediverse to the ATmosphere. I can set up a #GoToSocial account in minutes and have access to the whole Fediverse. To be FULLY independent on ATproto, you need to self-host your own:
1) PDS
2) AppView
3) Relay
4) Moderation stack

Otherwise you p*ss off someone at Bluesky and you're INVISIBLE to all

ouf David, "interesting" results when I look up "David Gerard" on Bluesky - sigh. There's a user with a NSFW profile pic and profile description. But no worries, there's no chance someone would mistake you for him. Cherry on top is that he has a lot of posts about using AI 🫠

I also have very questionable "Elena Rossini"s with profiles on commercial social platforms. I guess we have to live with that
