I mean, generally I agree, but what gives me pause here is that Graber is basically moving into a focus on federation full-time. A leadership change like this would be a perfect moment to pivot away from atproto and into a more walled garden, but Graber isn't even leaving the company.

This could just be theatrics, but it's at least interesting that they aren't taking this opportunity to close it all off when they absolutely could.

It is theatrics. They know they've already got literally the entire userbase on their server, so none of this actually matters.

When Bluesky inevitably enshittifies, they take the whole network down with them.
