As long as Mississippi can block 99.99% of the ATmosphere by blocking bsky.social...
...because 99.99% of the ATmosphere, including allegedly "fully independent" PDS, rely on bsky.social's AppView/relay stack...
...because people can afford to run their own PDS that's connected to someone else's AppView/relay stack, but not to run their own full PDS/AppView/relay stack...
...because it costs tens of thousands of dollars or Euros per year to run your own AppView/relay stack...
...because each AppView/relay stack in the ATmosphere
must contain literally all data of the entire ATmosphere...
...because that's how the AT protocol works...
...as long as this is the case,
the ATmosphere will never be every bit as fully decentralised as the Fediverse.For 99.99% of the Fediverse
do not rely on mastodon.social's SQL database. Only 22% do, and that's mastodon.social itself.
An ATmosphere PDS is not a fully independent, fully decentralised, fully autonomous server stack like a Fediverse server!#
