It's also part of what seems broken over in the Bluesky world: sure, it's "federated", but only if you have a huge investment in infrastructure.

From Bryan Newbold's defense of atproto¹, "Our design goal is not to run the entire network on small instances…This architecture facilitates big-world indices…Such indices are not cheap at scale!"

But I want my federation to be so affordable that anybody can get a domain-name, spin up a $1/month VPS instance², and participate in the fediverse. Things like snac make the completely feasible. So thanks, The Real Grunfink (nprofile…73zh)!
