Bluesky managed to go offline practically entirely. I count on you folks to spork the hell out of this.

I think you misunderstand. Bluesky is completely non federated. It has nothing to do with the fediverse and there is no ability to migrate.

Not sure if your information is outdated or if you're using a different definition of federate, but this blog post says they have support for a degree of federation: https://bsky.social/about/blog/02-22-2024-open-social-web

Hmm thanks. It looks like you can set up a server with their protocol but it doesnt use activitypub. So it is technically federated but its not part of the whole mastodon/lemmy/pixelfed/etc fediverse.

This is really shitty and just creates a whole lot of unnecessary work for everyone if they want to reach bluesky users. If you were slightly more cynical you could say they skipped over the Embrace step and are already at the Extend step, trying to split the fediverse.
