      CDN won’t scale to millions of users all uploading videos on a decentralized system. Article is specifically talking about AT Protocol which doesn’t account for video. Making a global CDN distribution of videos from decentralized sources is whole other ball of wax.

          Bluesky has videos linked to a static host by a different site or provider. They are not themselves the host of those videos. Different scenario.
