So now there are two main European atproto providers (PDS and client), one is open source and one is closed source. Very concerned that the EU talks about how important OSS is, and then they pick the closed source one :/

They are on several social media, I don't think they are about to exclude #Eurosky. 🇪🇺 W Social: Stockholm-based AT 🇺🇸 X (formerly Twitter): Muskysphere 🇺🇸 Instagram, Facebook, Threads, Whatsapp: Zuckysphere 🇺🇸 LinkedIn: IBM 🇻🇬 Telegram: Durovgrad 🇪🇺 Mastodon 🇺🇸 YouTube: BrinPage

I really hope they are not creating both a Eurosky and W Social account! They are two servers in the same social network (Bluesky), it would be pretty weird to have it duplicate.

Agreed. Even though I personally actually have both a Eurosky, a WSocial (inactive) and BlueSky account. Formally, it matters less on which non-US, non-Chinese, non-Russian server it resides as long as they adhere to European rules and nobody else's. But an unaudited service is just as bad.
