@_elena @mapache They also want to require identity verification for their users, so that fits https://www.t-online.de/digital/internet/id_101092238/soziales-netzwerk-aus-europa-will-elon-musk-konkurrenz-machen-w-statt-x.html

Otherwise, they could just go for EuroSky if they want an ATProto network

[gunchleoc@mastodon.scot]

@_elena Speaking of which, maybe you could ask somebody working on the BlackSky/NorthSky/EuroSky projects?

@_elena @laurenshof are you in Brussels? Maybe this might be interesting for you https://luma.com/9f10yt6f!?

[mapache@hachyderm.io]

@_elena sure

[mapache@hachyderm.io]

@_elena sure. And out of curiosity what is the question

[_elena@mastodon.social]

@mapache all good now, Laurens answered for me. It was about Bluesky's "dataplane implementation" and PostgreSQL

@philvuchetich @_elena @mapache @cwebber
I think everyone that is going to write anything about bluesky and AT Protocol in relation to "federation" should read this first.

@philvuchetich yes of course I’m familiar with this piece by the legend @cwebber - when she first published it, I shared it with sooo many people. Absolutely brilliant.

In my exposé of W Social I won’t get too deep into protocols, but I may mention this when discussing the costs involved in setting up a fork with its own appview. So thanks for the reminder 🙏
