Thanks you for this geeky, nerdy..roll my eyes tech crap I didn't understand many of the words, much less what the hell ya'll are doing. I love the hell out of your joy in what you're doing, and all the rest geeking on it. Reminds me of college, and being lil sis at a frat

Personal Data Store - the bit that holds all the bits that you've created under your name. PDSs are indexed by Relays, and the apps query the Relays and show you the results. When you get started Bluesky handles it all for you but you can move as much as you want onto your own silicon. Or PS4s.

Technically the "turnkey PDS" right now is just making an account on Bluesky and not migrating it. So another turnkey PDS solution would have to come from somewhere else. (I think it would still be hosting, because nobody's made hosting a reliable server non-technical)

I have a ton of experience optimizing game engines for consoles. What frame rate would you like your PDS to run at on PS4? I think we could make 30, maybe 60 at a push - but I think PSVR support is a bridge too far. People are not ready for VR Bluesky, anyway. Never mind ClipClops (TM)

I’ve seen jank, and this is pretty jank… I love it! 🤣🤣🤣 lmfao Used to do the same with my xbox when I still actually used it. 🤣🤣🤣 Didn’t the PS4 have a USB3.0 on the back tho? Or was that just a 2.0?

It'll be really interesting to see where that goes honestly. We've had about a decade of slowly narrowing sharing options and now the apple cart has been tipped. Those old options are looking, well, old.
