No. It’s decentralized like the Fediverse, but it doesn’t use ActivityPub. I think there are some 3rd party developers working on an ActivityPub-Bluesky bridge, but nothing concrete yet.

Considering how surnames originate, that would be interesting finding out just what the ancestor who first used that name did in order to be known by it.

“You’re looking for Jack? There’s Jack the baker, Jack the tailor, and there’s Jack from down the street. He doesn’t really do anything, but he’s good enough.”

It’s not going to have a direct material effect, but it’s going to affect perception. There are already people cautious about corporate influence on Linux, and a Linux distro getting closed like this is going to be seen negatively. While Fedora and RedHat are separate entities, they’re close enough for one’s perception to rub off on the other.

Specifically, it’s the Easylist - Notifications filter that seems to do it for Reddit.

That’s their TOS. Their actions recently — namely undeleting user posts and comments — run directly counter to their TOS. They’re essentially claiming ownership of the user submitted content by doing that.

So basically, according to Reddit, they own everything on Reddit. That means all the the CP, hate speech — and in this case, piracy — that are posted on Reddit are Reddit’s responsibility. Bold strategy, cotton. They’re basically waiving their net neutrality.
