Blog post by Christine Lemmer-Webber, co-editor of ActivityPub: https://dustycloud.org/blog/how-decentralized-is-bluesky/

The likely answer to this is that there will always have to be a large corporation at the heart of Bluesky/ATProto, and the network will have to rely on that corporation to do the work of abuse mitigation, particularly in terms of illegal content and spam. This may be a good enough solution for Bluesky’s purposes, but on the economics alone it’s going to be a centralized system that relies on trusting centralized authorities.

Because there's little incentive.

Anyway, wafrn does count, in my opinion.

There's as little incentive to host a Lemmy instance.

I am having a look at wafrn, do you have an example of a Bluesky account visible from there? I only see local accounts.
