What does this mean to someone unfamiliar with these acronyms?
Atproto (protocol powering bluesky) will be further developed and standardized by the ieft (Internet engineering task Force), a group separate from the for-profit bluesky PBC
Neat! So just more open development?
Yep, and it’s by a group which has much less incentive to fuck the protocol up.
