    youll need to be more specific on what you mean by ‘federating’, but the answer is generally, no. domains are fundamentally core to the infrastructure.

    its like asking can we have a phone system without phone numbers… suuure, but then its not really a phone system anymore, is it?

    can we segment user addressing from server addressing? potentially… thats where it get interestingly complex.

          atproto has no problem scaling. It’s Bluesky, a platform that wants to see all the network, that has issues scaling

          It’s still at a very early stage, and they do have hosting costs in mind.

          It’s the first proposal I’ve seen trying to solve the problem

            im not saying the fediverse isnt without its serious challenges. that said;

            sorry, not letting bluesky havin my keys… but you do you.

            i just dont understand people putting their effort into a piece of shit, corporate backed protocol like AT when AP is already more mature, in use, and with large contingent of active developers.

            its portability is at the whim of those running the system. its still not your data. you can take your pod… and go where? all those other routers that will startup just any day now? after 3 years i think there’s 2 routers… and they dont talk to eathother. hilarious.

            any day now!

            its just twitter 2.0 with more steps and all the same executives.
