Brian Newbold has an update post on how atproto is doing at moving towards their stated goals, which is to be distributed.

> Fast-forwarding a year and a half, today the network is openly federated with hundreds of PDS instances.

He goes over everything else required to be truly distributed... The multiple PDS's isn't everything. But it's been a lot of progress. Decentralization & walking away remains a focus. And there's a fairly strong 3rd party developer community that's very promising.

(Personal note, your post in my view contains reprehensible & gross mud-sling & slant. Holier than thou left-leaning academics itself sounds like a really judgemental case of projection.)

My comment came on a bit strong so I'm sorry for that.
