@glyph @jonny So if I understand correctly the promise Bluesky offers around resistance to enshittification, this would be the moment where we can switch to an instance operated by someone with decent ethics while keeping our followers, followees and tweet history right ?

@jonny @ewjoachim there is still a lot to be desired here but the promise *is* starting to manifest at the edges, and it's nice to see there's a practical deployment of this now. (Sort of. My understanding is that while this gets you off of *a lot* of bluesky infrastructure, your feet are still pretty well nailed to the floor by the ultimate did:plc: resolution service)

@glyph @jonny @ewjoachim no, and as of 2025 there's been really rapid development such that we think it would no longer be a good idea to publish it, it's finally outdated.... except in that respect
