I don’t think bluesky was federated. Not in the sense that anybody can start making bluesky servers in their room
its just a clone of early twitter, basically.
“Bluesky” itself is trademarked and all the rest, but it uses AtProtocol which is a completely open federation protocol. AtProtocol doesn’t have the support of ActivityPub because it’s much newer and also more complicated (for good reason, but still).
Whether anything about it is for a good reason is very much a contested point. There are significant issues they introduced with the design while trying to address some that exist in ActivityPub.
