So? 100% of users never used the fediverse before it existed. Bluesky / ATProtocol is now offering an alternative where usernames are not tied to instances, and that sounds like a better UX.
i thought this thread was about me correcting misunderstandings about activitypub software. i have no interest in bluesky until/unless they either aferro gpl their code or implement activitypub federation. there are no merits to their network that i can see unless one or both of those come to pass.

I don’t see a title saying “self post: let me correct you about the activitypub protocol”, I see a link to Bluesky launching federated storage.

Then don’t engage in a discussion about their identity system, just post a blanket comment saying “they suck cause they’re not open enough” and leave the thread. The rest of us are here discussing the relative merits of one protocol vs another.
>there’s technical reasons why ids and instances are associated on Lemmy / Mastodon, but not UX reasons.
…right…
>99% of users just want a username,
literally 100% of users have used this system regardless of the fact that identities are tied to services.
