Your data should still be in bsky.app's PDS, you just won't be able to log into their app. You could probably try to find or modify a bsky instance that doesn't accept blacklists from bsky.app, and then you'd be able to log in normally. As for why bsky.app is stalling you, it's largely because they don't have an internal process for handling data requests from banned accounts, or even a person in charge of it.
There may be a way to simply ask them to migrate your data to another PDS, but despite this, your account will still not be able to log into bsky.app. Unless you set up your own full bsky network or join another bsky network, you won't be able to get your messages to appear on bsky.app either, unless your friends have left bsky.app as well.

I don't think they even had messages yet when I was on bsky, but maybe I should dig into this more and see if I can recover my posts
The bad news is that my friend realized that the account blocking message comes directly from the PDS code logic, so modifying the bsky app to get around the restriction is not an effective way to get around it. The good news is that I found your account status is "Takendown", and only "Deleted" and "Deactivated" in the code logic will cause the account data to be completely deleted from PDS.
So, if you still need your data, just knock on their door every day.
Sounds centealized and fragmented
