Can you? The same Glitch that shut down last year? https://blog.glitch.com/post/goodbye-glitch
Regardless, ActivityPub and ATProto have different designs and goals. Your question is akin to comparing a helicopter and an airplane.
There's no such thing as a "ATProto server". How complicated it is, and the trade-offs it made are valid criticisms of it. It all depends on what exactly your goal is as a participant of a distributed social network.

Want your own AppView so you can have nekusar.net and post your messages and people on BSky see it ? https://github.com/blacksky-algorithms/atproto
ActivityPub zealots would do well to calm down for one second, this can't be good for your heart man.
