That’s the same advantage all the other options have, too.

So you are of the opinion that the bluesky devs are currently lying about working to get it federated?

I wasn’t thinking about that at all, but they probably aren’t trying very hard, if I had to guess. What’s their current monetization model?

Not sure. You can run your own instance right now so they have enabled that but you can’t yet federate with the main instance. I believe you can store your own data in your own instance though but I’m not sure.
