<p>What&#39;s actually happening right now is the Bluesky *website* is broken but the *phone app* still works. I propose the following theory:</p><p>Mastodon is &quot;horizontally decentralized&quot;; this means if one part of the network goes down the other parts continue working.</p><p>Bluesky is &quot;vertically decentralized&quot;; they separated each tech stack component into a slice that can be hosted by a different company. This means if any part of the network goes down they ALL stop working, because the layers interconnect</p>

<p>Ah… the decentralized social network that goes down completely when one centralized server goes down, is down again</p>

Not sure why I thought of that.</p>

It a lot of cases debugging can take up much more time than writing new code.</p>
