Migrating from Bluesky + Alternatives

[incomplete_ruler]

Don't know if this is the right place to post this, but based on the last few entries I thought I'd share this post from one of my mutuals: elyusion | This Is Not a Paid Advertisement

It's basically a masterpost with information about the AT Protocol (which bsky is based on) and also a bunch of ATProto alternatives that you can migrate to without losing your bluesky data (more info in post). Honestly even if you're not a bsky user I'd still recommend giving it a read 'cause I feel like the more social media goes in the way that it's going, the more spaces like this are needed.

Thanks for linking this! It’s great to have another info post. (I also heard about the stuff and wrote up some info for friends, encouraging them to think about moving to another PDS 😂)

No problem! This stuff is really interesting to me, so if I can help bring this info to more people's attention then that's good for me.

That’s really great! It also now occurred to me: there have been some good conversation at about atproto and wider stuff (leveraging it as a way to have a network of fanworks archives?) and you might be interested in the fandom coders discord & community. More info: https://www.fancoders.com

There’s also an informally-connected Dreamwidth community https://fancoded.dreamwidth.org
