      As much as i agree, i think its important for apps like CoMaps to be visible on “mainstream” platforms too, so that the people who have yet to discover the wonderful world of opensauce can find out about these apps☺️

        Fair enough. But we can’t forget Bluesky is using open source and federation as tools to attract users. And we need to hold them to their promises.
