BlueSky: an overview of a new decentralized social network

Description

"The BlueSky social network most closely resembles Twitter (now X) and if someone wonders why we need another Twitter (now X), the answer is quite simple: decentralization.

We are all tired of smart feeds and ""brilliant innovations"" of social network owners and want at least a little freedom from the tyranny of these same owners. Decentralization gives such hope (sometimes illusory) and at this stage the BlueSky developers declare the ability to raise their own servers and migrate, if necessary, from server to server, preserving their subscribers. And they also promise that you will see in the feed the posts of those people you want to see, and not those that the owner of the BlueSky social network wants to show you."
