Bluesky, which uses it, has been opened to federation now, and the standard basically just looks better than ActivityPub. Has anyone heard about a project to make a Lemmy-style "link aggregator" service on it?

ha, no.. bluesky is not open to federation. they control the only router and do not allow connectivity to routers not controlled by them.

there isnt a single non-bluesky controlled instance that can federate natively with bluesky.

bluesky is just twitter with a little more user-controllable data sourcing. not that theres anything wrong with that, but its certainly not a part of any federation.

This is such a well written piece, it's closer to a serious article than a blogpost

agreed. the follow up is just as good.
