>Whereas Mastodon/ActivityPub has some flaws that are going to cause real long-term problems if they're not addressed, e.g. tying accounts to a specific instance combined with the propensity for instances to ban other entire instances or ban small/new instances by default, which will have the unfortunate propensity for market concentration. Which is almost like the opposite problem: Instead of being centralized right now but they might fix it later, it's federated right now but they might break it later.

This, among other issues with Mastodon, is what made me try Bluesky. Unfortunately, like I said in another comment, the feed crap is breaking me. Even my facebook feed is better than this, and I spent more time pruning Bluesky's.
