I have to be honest, I’m not fond of social media. I’ve dipped my toes in Mastodon a few times (including running my own instance) but it has never stuck. Neither am I particularly interested in Bluesky. But I do like to mess around with computers, so when I read that Bluesky were releasing their Personal Data Server (PDS) for self-hosted federation, I decided to see what all of the fuss was about.
