With regard to "can my identity be taken away on bluesky" a while back I tried to create a new identity using DID:Web instead of Placeholder, with my own self-hosted PDS. There was only one piece of software to let you do this, which was provided by BlueSky itself, and it still required me to still effectively "register" with their servers to be seen by the network. (The first time I tried it their tool didn't even work, it was a couple months before it worked again. ) Maybe it is not strictly necessary, or with a lot more work I could have figured it out, but as a practical matter you need them to get on the network. I am convinced that "decentralization" on Bluesky is not meant to be viable, it is meant to be a legal escape hatch in case Congress decided to regulate social media, which does seem to be the atmosphere Bluesky was conceived in at Twitter at the time.
For what it's worth, nomadic identity for the Fediverse is actively being worked on, it even works on a few server implementations already. 1 reply
