At least Bluesky is decentralized and Open Source, isn’t it? While this is a conceptual step down from Fediverse, it’s still better than all the other alternatives in use. I don’t know how much the Bluesky company controls the entire platform, if its even possible.

It’s technically decentralized, but functionally this doesn’t mean anything (yet) except for them not having to care about moderation.

It seems part of it might be open source, like the AT protocol, but not sure about all of it.

It’s centralized and for-profit. They will have to do ads eventually or shut down.
