I'm no expert in these technologies, but this appears to be a bunch of thinktankers, Mozilla execs (sigh...) and a few AI bros trying to raise $4 MILLION "to turn Bluesky’s underlying tech—the AT Protocol—into...an entire ecosystem of interconnected apps".
Such a great idea I'm amazed that no-one's thought of it before! Perhaps just donate to the Fediverse instead?
(Sadly this was being pushed by @openrightsgroup.)
Well, if you knew more about the underlying technologies it might be more understandable that BlueSky was technologically more effective in reaching their goals than Fediverse is.
Fediverse has some real issues with it, some design choices that were seriously questionable.
You can't just donate to Fediverse instead because those design choices are so firmly in place here that they can't really be changed without making a whole new system.
