this leads to the fascinating conclusion that increasing decentralisation of a network can decrease the resilience of the network!
And in the end, regular people dont care about decentralisation, they care about if the app on their phone works
So it seems better to discuss problems with bluesky and atproto in different terms, like resilience for example. When some parts of bksy infra goes down, it goes down for 99.99% of people. Thats bad, and def not resilient!
