Bluesky, a Twitter-like social network championed by Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey, has emerged from its cocoon and is now allowing anyone to create an account and join the service.
Until Tuesday, anyone hoping to join Bluesky needed an invitation, which typically meant hunting down an existing member and begging for an invite.
That invite-only period gave the site time to build out moderation tools and other features, Bluesky said.
In fact, Threads has already begun experimenting with sharing posts to Mastodon and other services using ActivityPub.
“I’m pretty optimistic about this.”By contrast, Bluesky adopted a federation algorithm called the Authenticated Transfer Protocol and is so far the only such service using it.
