# Exploring the idea of self-hosting a Bluesky PDS alongside my Indiekit instance…

Exploring the idea of self-hosting a Bluesky PDS alongside my Indiekit instance — turning it into a dual-protocol server that federates over both ActivityPub and AT Protocol simultaneously. Inspired by Wafrn's approach, adapted to Indiekit's plugin architecture and Cloudron deployment. The goal: own your AT Protocol identity and data on your own infrastructure, not on bsky.social. Plan drafted, implementation to follow.
