Could someone please explain to me whether Bluesky is decentralized?

@cwebber Hi Christine,
I did some digging through some back issues of CU Amiga, and I think I've figured out the answer!
It turns out, this BlueSky thing is indeed part of a decentralised network, and it's called the Internet!
Now, I know what you're thinking: What is this internet thing, and how is it different to the BBSes that I've been dialling into, using my home microcomputer?
Well, it turns out that the files on your local computer user group's BBS are typically all stored on the one computer.
But the internet is like a worldwide network of BBSes!
People are calling it an information superhighway!
You can start "surfing" from one BBS to another.
You can be in Canada and connect over the Internet to a BBS in Germany!
Is your mind blown yet?
It's compatible with all the popular microcomputers, including IBM Compatibles, Apple Macintosh, Commodore Amiga, Acorn Archimedes, and Atari ST.
Beyond viewing overseas BBSes, there's a range of fun things you can find on the web, including newsgroups, gophers, MUDs, MOOs, and electronic mail!
And now... BlueSky!
Some people say the internet won't catch on. But I saw it running on one of the Solaris workstations at a local university, and I have to say it looked pretty spiffy!wrote for 22 dage siden sidst redigeret af@aj this is a good answer

@cwebber it isn’t as far as I know. Though Bluesky plans on be decentralized as far as I know.

@cwebber Many of its users are in different places, thus totally decentralized!

We will get to the bottom of this

How Does BlueSky Work?, by @steveklabnik.comhttps://steveklabnik.com/writing/how-does-bluesky-work/
> One of the reasons I am enthusiastic about BlueSky is because of the way that it works. So in this post, I am going to lay out some of the design and the principles behind this design, as I understand them. I am not on the BlueSky team, so these are my takes only.
