Ok. So then your point is, that PDSs have still access and they offer APIs?

Any relay can establish a websocket connection to any PDS's xrpc (firehose) endpoint. But such relays already exist and are not run by bluesky, so you can go through one of those, or make your own, limit the backfill to run on a cheap VM if you want.

You might want to read up on the protocol architecture over there first. Once you've got the basics then happy to debate about it.
