Accidental Tech Podcast534: On the Cheerleader Bus

Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro for iPad, and the promise of Bluesky in a crowded space.
Jari Pennanen@atpfm @siracusa @marcoarment Bluesky is pull-based like RSS (PDS in Bluesky). It has the same problems as podcast apps that need to cache all RSS feeds.
BGS then pulls data from all PDSs constantly. The BGS generates the fire-hose which then creates the feed.
Whereas Mastodon is push-based, if you post something it's pushed to your followers.
Bluesky doesn't have the same consistency issue because it's pull-based, running BGS is a big task, similar to pulling all RSS files in podcast app
@atpfm @siracusa @marcoarment Also what Bluesky does isn't that novel, someone compared it to Matrix: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35886140 apparently they've been in contact and both have similar repository system as storage.
