I don't think it's misleading at all, the comment you're looking to is.

People really do ask where "The AT Proto server is" as evidenced by this thread, and the really is no "AT Proto server" or "instance". AT Proto and BlueSky are a collection of services with no 1-1 relationship to a Mastodon or RSS server.

There's absolutely nothing misleading about that.



The misleading thing is that people asking do not care about the exact construction of ATProto. They ask whether they can self-host and control everything and still interact with the main network.
