I have no clue what "Bluesky firehose" even means.

Bluesky is a microblogging social network, like Twitter, or Threads.

However, Bluesky is the only one with open access to the firehose, aka all the activity. Here is a different, less aesthetically pleasing tool to see it:

Mastodon is pretty open as well. Just won’t be the entire firehouse due to the decentralized nature of it.

There seems to be some projects that scrape(?) the most popular servers to turn it into a firehose, like this one: https://relay.fedi.buzz/

The atproto relays are crawling aggregations of independent servers. There’s no reason AP couldn’t accomplish the same if they worked on it
