That's right. But flying the flag for the moment.

It's early days and it will take many people and orgs together but we'll get there. My personal target: 50% of European social media users on open platforms by 2030.

In parallel, we've also been working on all the non-tech side of things. Having an institutional home @modalfoundation.bsky.social, compliance, fundraising.. We're setting up for the long term. After the PDS, it will be appview components and apps.

Folks who get the invitations early should expect a service that works but where things can go wrong. Early adopters and all that 🙂🙏

We also want to make the user experience for migrating accounts as easy as possible. There are good tools that do this today but it's a bit of an involved process and many people may find it a bit complicated. We're working on a more streamlined tool but it will take a few weeks because of capacity.

There are thousands of folks registered already and we haven't really been promoting this beyond a couple of posts on Bluesky. We want to make sure you get a reliable service. Something always go wrong in any product and we want to minimize any future service disruption.

Our friends at the brand new @modalfoundation.bsky.social are focused on this through their project Eurosky, which aims to build out the infrastructure that would allow over 450 million people in the EU to experience the social internet outside of Silicon Valley apps.
