this seems like a real issue w/ the design of atproto in its present form tbh. i really don't want all my accounts to be entangled with my social media such that if the mods don't appreciate my tone i effectively no longer exist on all the other apps in the ecosystem

ponder@ponder.ooo

something i hadn't considered about using tangled while not running my own pds is it means the bluesky social media moderation staff can lock me out of being able to push to my fucking git repos

this feels like part of the design (ideally, you """simply""" run your own pds!) but yeah it does create a fucked up serf caste, of which i at least remain a part from simple laziness

it isn't enough; they just !takedown you, you disappear from relay/appview. You have to run your own parallel infrastructure *and get people to use it instead of theirs* to make any traction on this.

if bsky is your pds host and they take down your repo then of course it will not be available. likewise if you self-host and your vps provider takes down your server it will not be available in both cases you solve that by moving to another provider

there are multiple kinds of takedown; for some, yeah unless whatever the thing you're using queries the PDS directly without using any of bsky's infrastructure
