Twitter-backed Bluesky, a startup that studies and develops open and decentralized social media standards, released its first code, Authenticated Data Experiment (ADX), on GitHub on Thursday.
Unlike centralized social media platforms, which store user-generated content on their servers, ADX data is saved in user-owned Personal Data Repositories.
“There’s no one company that can decide what gets published; instead there is a marketplace of companies”
“deciding what to carry to their audiences,”
Bluesky posts on GitHub of the ADX moderation protocol.
Although ADX is still in development, it is available for developers to test on GitHub under an open-source MIT License.
The Bluesky initiative, which was started in 2019 and incorporated as an autonomous organization in 2022, has Twitter founder and former CEO Jack Dorsey on its board of directors.
“We don’t have a finished product or a fully-specified protocol,”
“but we’re putting together components that we believe will enable a social media ecosystem”
” with a healthier balance of power,”
Bluesky CEO Jay Graber writes in a May 4 update of the project.
