Even if/when they do federate, the intent appears to be for large companies to run major portions of the protocol.

And Bluesky just converted to a C corp to take on venture capital.

I deactivated my account last week because I won’t get fooled again.

(I now have that song by The Who stuck in my head.)

Yet people still choose a platform where their DM's are wide open for operators to see and their account can get stomped at any moment. Oh, and most of the content is furry porn and racism, bUt iTs fEDeRaTeD

If they do, people could just make a super-mastodon that federates both with Bluesky and any ActivityPub service, allowing people to just skip the ads. Investors won't like that.
