in fact in my understanding this is incorrect. being able to host your own pod won't help much with scaling; pods were designed to consume low resources. afaiu the scaling bottleneck is the aggregator thingies https://bsky.app/profile/emily.bsky.team/post/3jzniqyluw52z

if I understand the bluesky architecture correctly, ppl are gonna get angry when we get federation and it's not what they expected

AFAIU, federation as planned only means federating ownership of my data. means I can host my data myself. but the rest of the bricks that make up bluesky (the aggregators, the timelines) is as before. so e.g. hosting ym own server doesn't really give me more control on what happens to my data

that said, the rest of the bluesky architecture is epic so it doesn't matter that much to me! I can choose timelines and custom moderation labels and all the good stuff! bluesky already gave us a shitton of freedom and control

it feels safe from the sheer familiarity. I know where to buy anything I'd need, I know where to chill and to party and to browse books

What's interesting about DMs is that I don't care that much for them to be in the same app, what I want most is for them to use the same identities as here. But bluesky makes this v easy! So someone would make a third-party DM provider right now!

i want to host a bsky hackathon in which we build the open source bluesky client + features of our dreams -- we can push the frontier of what "social technology" can be... but to do that I need help organizing, and I need buy-in. share this around if you want to make it happen, I suppose! :)
