The distinction between #BlueSky and #ActivityPub is a fundamental contrast in values: BlueSky, backed by venture capital, aligns with a profit-powered approach that prioritizes monetization and control, much like traditional #dotcons. On the other hand, ActivityPub is a people-powered protocol rooted in #FOSS open-source principles and community development, to foster decentralized, #4opens #DIY paths. This contrast underscores the differing paths each protocol envisions for the future of the #openweb—profit-driven versus community-driven—each with its implications, economic, social and political.
