I think their initial selling point was that Eventually©®™ Bluesky would federate with the rest of the Fediverse.
Is anybody really surprised that a social media corporation didn't make it their utmost priority to allow their userbase to connect out of their proprietary platform?
They never said they'd do so natively with other protocols - but they support Bridgy, so you already can do that.
Interesting how other instances of the fediverse have no such restrictions. It's almost as if they want to make it as difficult as possible so that people just don't federate.
There's literally no restrictions other than simple rate limiting, which you can ask for exceptions for.
I don't know a Mastodon/lemmy server which wouldn't rate limit new peers
