@benroyce I'm only talking about the protocol since the beginning, nothing of what I'm saying is about crypto

@sab @_elena

@benroyce atproto is way more than a protocol for microblogging. messages aren't the only data our pds stores. it can log all the movies/tvshows we watched, all of our blogs, music history, rss feeds, encrypted messages, games, etc can be stored out there

I think you're criticizing atproto without being aware of how powerful it is. bluesky is just a brick of atproto, just like mastodon is just a brick of activitypub

@sab @_elena

@benroyce personally, I think atproto architecture is way ahead of activitypub and does almost anything activitypub ever did. what do you mean by saying "bluesky hasn't everything mastodon has" ?

@wjmaggos @_elena

@UlrikeHahn it surely is, but nothing technically prevents anyone to crawl data from https://[any_instance]/public/local automatically. It's even worse on AP because you never really delete a post as it's duplicated on a thousands different instances. Someone already did a firehose of activitypub but I can't remember his @

@_elena

@wjmaggos I agree with you, even if permissive data is coming this year. for the appview part, anyone can build his own and pick the data they want from the pds. there's also dozens of different alternatives already, which limits enchittification

@_elena @benroyce

@UlrikeHahn @_elena how is it different from the fediverse? as long as there's a firehose, anyone can crawl mastodon.social or any other instance and do the same

@_elena permissive data/spaces is coming this year, and you can use E2EE messaging germ using your pds. if you want to delete any data, you can just connect to pds.ls and delete any record you want (e.g. all your likes, comments, etc)

@_elena are you aware that any record is public on atproto and checkable on pds.ls? there's nothing new .....

@stux it’s “@threads.net” for fediverse profiles
