It's more like Mastodon's backend being open source but its web frontend
and mobile apps being closed source. Dmitri is right,
https://github.com/bluesky-social/atproto is the code that the current main
server backend is running. There's a lot of significant code and logic
there, and Melvin you're right, also a lot of significant code and logic in
the web frontend and mobile apps. The team has said they hope/plan to open
source those eventually too. We'll see!
