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.)

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.
