The whole premise of a free social media protocol is that it is resistant to hostile takeovers. All issues stem from this.

1. I absolutely feel very strongly about decentralization. If there is a part of the stack that isn't it opens up the whole project to the kind of issues I'm talking about in the blog post.

2. Then it is not made to be resistant to the above problems

3. Actually, this is where you are wrong! If atproto implemented a more robust, decentralized default identity system I would be a very happy camper.

I make comments because I care about the subject, obviously. I use Bluesky a lot and I don't want it to end up like Twitter.

There is not one right answer and being hostile towards atproto doesn't earn you friends or support for your ideas.

I recommend adjusting how you argue for your position, especially the tone. If you want to pay it forward, and repair some the damage to your ability to make proposals within the atmosphere, I would further recommend you write an alternative version with a leading apology and take down the antagonistic version you have published.
