Could someone please explain to me whether Bluesky is decentralized? Maybe send me some blogposts. Thanks!

@cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber from what I read it can be decentralised, in the sense that if you really try hard, you'd be able to host your own instance, but it will never be peer-to-peer, so the traffic will always go through the bluesky central hub.

I am not really a technical guy so I might misunderstood it, so I am looking forward to read the replies too.
