A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

A lot of words for "I didn't know you could use the network without using servers controlled by Bluesky"
The network is the thing that's controlled by BS, a for-profit company who's CEO is a crypto fan.
I've already explained how they have designed it so they can't control it. Just use web-DID and your own domain handle on your own PDS, and then you can connect to a 3rd party relay (BGS, the CDN like cache) and whichever feeds and moderation tools and filter subscriptions you like. You don't need to touch the official servers at all.
The network doesn't use any cryptocurrency technology. There's no blockchain, etc.
nobody said they did
