"So are you going to just create another relay/appview or are you going to try to lead Bluesky/ATProto towards being more decentralized"
"What are you talking about, adding a second relay/appview *is* making Bluesky/ATProto more decentralized"
@cwebber Here's what I'm hoping for:
- They raise money.
- Realize what they initially planned on doing is unfeasible / not good enough
- Spend a part of that money making it very public that Bluesky is not decentralized
- Spend the rest of that money building interoperability tools.
Alternatively,
- build out the second relay/appview,
- then (somehow, technomagically) drastically reduce the barrier to entry of setting up a 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc etc.
@mayintoronto I think projects which raise a lot of money but don't have a clear or valuable direction at the beginning end up, on average, blowing through that money without doing as much as they can/should
@cwebber Yes. But it's not my money. 
Chances are that they're going to land institutional donations or grants, and those will force them to be more clear on their objectives.
As I stated in my megathread, I just want to see people being able to raise that amount of money from non-tech people for something that their audience don't really understand.
@cwebber (I also feel like there's a ton of value in a failure to reach that objective.)
Either way, what they're trying to raise is cheaper than another LLM startup.
