It’s federated in name only. It would cost millions in storage and networking to set up another Bluesky node because each node is essentially a full mirror (not that you couldn’t code custom filters or something I’d guess?).
No one is ever going to bother unless conservatives want to set up their own server where they can’t be banned for trolling.

they couldnt anyway, because bluesky wont release the relay code or interact with foreign relays. theres nothing federating or decentralized about it.
e. i love their answer when you call them out on it… its ‘but our design takes too many resources to federate! but someday, we will release the code!’
So it’s basically as federated as a fediverse server with federation turned off lmao
And that’s basically what Truth Social actually is, and no one claims that Trump’s server is federated.
Really? Can you point me to where they have said things along these lines?
Why are more people not pointing out they say federation is basically impossible, so that’s why they are not doing it…
The relay code is here: https://github.com/bluesky-social/indigo/tree/main/cmd/bigsky
And according to this you can host everything except “AppView”: https://alice.bsky.sh/post/3laega7icmi2q
