I like the concept, app store avoidance, but it really needs to be open source.
How do I know it's not the government behind this? How can I verify the claims?
a very opinionated piece that leads by conclusion rather than building up to it.
The main part of ATProto that is centralized is the PLC and that will eventually be made (most likely) into a consortium. PDS hosting is debatable
That being said, it should be possible to run completely independent atproto networks today. We have several dev infra setups for doing it in the ecosystem
If you are interested in building on ATProtocol, one of the best places to start is the Discord (until we have an atproto native alt @blebbit.app)

Of course the spec is good too, very easy read
