Also for the protocol a non-Bluesky client can handle new account creation, but then that client either has to target users that host their own PDSs already or host them for them, and seeing as a PDS includes all the media (not just text like a nostr relay) that’ll add up. As such most clients currently in dev will ask users to create the account on Bluesky (the client) so Bluesky (the company) will in effect subsidise the cloud storage and networking. The vision is for third-party hosting to become cheap and easy so other clients can integrate with these third parties and offer account creation for users who have no interested in begin associated with Bluesky the client.
