The work to make the PLC not centralized has already begun

1. Non-profit (separate entity from Bluesky)

2. Moving to Switzerland (get the f' out of the US)

3. Consortium control (proof-of-authority)

A PLC read-only mirror implementation was released the last week. I've been running one for a almost a year, redoing my hardware right now, so it's currently down. There are others out there.

This is still centralized.

It's still good enough for most people

you don't have to like it, that's fine, you have Nostr as an alternative

Which specific claims are "outdated"?

Your answers have all been that it'll be solved in the fabulous future. Quite possibly! But until it happens, it hasn't happened.


the work is currently happening, which I have mentioned in other comments, since you indicated you have read them

At this point it sounds like a Duke Nukem Forever thing and it will be funcional around 2038, and be totally obsolete at this point.

There have been some people trying to think about DID migration, but also core protocol designers saying that's problematic and probably not going to happen. We'll see, Bsky CTO has said real politik has its place, so rally anything can be on the table if you can convince the majority. I think we could have something equivalent to a "hard fork" should the need arise

it was "currently happening" in May 2023, but I look forward to the working examples!

also, that's not a list of which specific claims are "outdated"


An official read-only mirror was released last week

> also, that's not a

you didn't respond to some of my points and questions, I'm leaving it as an exercise for the reader at this point
