From what I have seen using Bluesky this isn't true at all. It's brutally censored, even more than Twitter was in 2021. Or are there other relays and appviews I can use that aren't? Is there a comprehensive list of Bluesky infrastructure that isn't run by Bluesky themselves (excluding a PDS)? Or is it totally centralized for now?

Bluesky is just another r/politics. Irrelevant to everyone but an extreme fringe minority of Western liberals. I'm surprised how much I see posts about it on HN.

We're on a silicon valley forum my guy, it's as western as it gets before wrapping around and becoming east again!
