A picture is worth a thousand words: https://arewedecentralizedyet.online/

Here's another nice website: https://burningtree.github.io/bsky-dominance/

I am happy that I don't need to waste my time anymore debunking the "decentralization" of Bluesky.

Even a more decentralized system like fedi runs into the issue of creating completely separate networks via censorship and blocklists:

mine is a static analysis and doesn't update in real time though.

@djsumdog @ricci I think the fragmentation of fedi is often exaggerated.
Sure, if you look at poa.st and mastodon.art, they are two separate universes. But most instances are neither mass-blockers nor mass-blocked.

Mine is a single user instance and it's blocked from fosstodon, infosec, and silenced on a lot of big instances. My view on this instance is substantially different than other instances, and new instance just import large block lists that include me without really looking into them.

Same here. I got on some block lists for dumb reasons…like not blocking sites they don’t like and the specific software I use and I’m blocked by over 450 instances.

The Great Wall is real.

@silverpill Conversely, if they do make progress on that goal, we'll be able to tell

@silverpill @ricci Does "servers" refer to PDSs? Because there are even fewer relays. And they don't federate.

@light @silverpill Correct, and all PDSes belonging to bluesky are combined. I would be interested in adding data about relays, but do not know of a good data source on them, just a few mentions of individual ones here and there.

I guess you can compute complex-sounding metrics like "shannon index". But all you really need to know about a "decentralized" network is that they have one server with >99% of users, and it's clear that its decentralization claim is BS.
