    What are your thoughts on KERI? Some of Phillip's slide decks are weird to go through, but I really like its security & usability goals (key rotation needs to be realistic!) and the fact that it's going through the IETF RFC process. (Also, it avoids cryptocurrency-related blockchain baggage. It's disappointing how much blockchains have infested decentralized identity efforts.)

    > You might suspect that OP has a familiarity bias here but actually there is objective evidence that ActivityPub based implementations are (relatively) simple: there are dozens of implementations of both servers and clients, will all sorts of functionality that is not emulating the "twitter/mastodon" experience. Heck, even a Wordpress plugin in the works.

    AT Protocol has a very active ecosystem already too (even though Bluesky is still invite-only): https://github.com/bluesky-social/atproto-ecosystem

    This isn't a complete list; there's a very active Discord for people doing bluesky projects which currently has 1.2k+ members.

    https://atproto.com/guides/overview is a good start, but bit overwhelming when you get started.

    https://github.com/bluesky-social/atproto-ecosystem provides a good overview of the current ecosystem. If you wanna see how something is done, best to find another project already doing it and get inspired from them.
