🔊 BOSTON teachers, activists, parents- We're hosting a PRESS CONFERENCE with @mikeconnollyma.bsky.social @massequality.bsky.social @progressivemass.bsky.social @mass50501.bsky.social & others at 10AM outside the MA State House opposing dangerous "age verification" laws in the state. Join us!

You best believe we're gonna do an outdoor meetup at Night Shift!

Seeing a cool new AT:// app but it only supports app passwords.

I think the most pragmatic thing people can do, if they're being mandated to use LLMs, is to unionise. If by some miracle the bubble doesn't burst, there will still likely be lots of layoffs so get protecting yourself and your colleagues. @ethanmarcotte.com has got the blueprint for you here.

New multi protocol client app on the scene! I’ll try it when they add OAuth login for atproto. You can upvote the feature on their roadmap here https://fider.indigosocial.app/posts/14/oauth-for-bluesky

TOMORROW: Wednesday, May 13th @fightforthefuture.org @massequality.bsky.social @progressivemass.bsky.social @mass50501.bsky.social and more will host a PRESS CONFERENCE outside the MA State House opposing dangerous "age verification" laws in the state. www.fightforthefuture.org/news/2026-05...

We have begun rolling out End-to-End Encryption for RCS across Android and iOS. This is a huge milestone for privacy, making messaging more secure in the default apps so many people use. blog.google/products-and...

Oh snap! More encryption! Yay!

Slightly increase a band: They Probably Are Giants

@teal.fm playlists plsss and let me make playlists of albums (or playlists of playlists 👀) not just songs

Since we're doing mayo discourse... Kewpie mayo + Buldak hot sauce (I go 2:1), mix thoroughly. Dip some fries in that thing and never look back at the life you lived before trying it.

I love that I've trained my For You feed to show me happy Eurosky users post migration saying it was easy and painless

Removing the constraint of mutual exclusivity between apps unlocks an enormous recognition of experiences that were otherwise infeasible. The Venns can overlap, doesn’t mean the all become one circle.

@iame.li realizing now that video feeds will likely only serve the metadata records so wanna make sure those have enough to support that use case.

What the helllllll was this map??? https://enclose.horse Day 132 💎 PERFECT! 💎 100% 🐴 🥉 okay 🥉 0% 🐴🦄

wait this might be the whole pitch? zuck says you MUST see FB content only in FB. Atmosphere says post here view anywhere anyhow.

so just wondering... has anyone put a @grain.social gallery as the content of a @standard.site doc? cus you can just do that

@knotbin.com @joebasser.com either of yall online? come in and talk video lexicons!

This your regularly scheduled reminder that Substack is not independent media

the killer app is interop

@anirudh.fi yall heard of this? Could be interesting tech for knots https://code.storage/

What are your favorite radio stations?? Music, stories, all of it!

ATProto community, we're getting very close to VOD general availability! I've posted some draft versions of the following atproto lexicons: `place.stream.video` `place.stream.media.track` `place.stream.media.origin` Please roast my lexicons! What's good, what's bad, what makes you mad? Speak now!

https://enclose.horse Day 131 🥈 Great 🥈 80% Oooooff I did not try enough things

If it involves piss poor age verification and leaves privacy by the wayside? It should not be supported. If anything, governor? Consult with @fightforthefuture.org on anything regarding social media legislation. Anything other than slapdash legislation.

There is a better path @govpritzker.illinois.gov, one that doesn’t entrench monopolies, suppress free speech and set up a surveillance state in furtherance of Project 2025. If you’re serious about protecting kids look at @fightforthefuture.org’s proposal: www.fightforthefuture.org/news/2026-05...

it's not about protecting kids, its about tracking adults. c'mon now!

I'm going to "Porchfest Hack".

We had so much fun building for Porchfest this weekend that we want to do it proper. Come with us to the next @codeforboston.bsky.social meetup for a Porchfest Hack Night! 🗓️Tuesday May 19 7PM 📍Cambridge Innovation Center

Heading out to #somervilleporchfest today? @scoiattolo.mountainherder.xyz put the whole schedule on the atmosphere. Use any atmospheric events app to discover bands and plan your day! More might be coming in the next three hours…

I feel like we haven’t done enough experimentation around other relaying methods. You could pass around signed json files over just about anything.

Hey @pagebound.bsky.social! I love love love your app (bc @alanascorner.online does :) and love y'all's mission. I would love to chat sometime about how we could make Pagebound and all of the other great Goodreads alternatives stronger together by uniting on an open protocol.

T-shirt when?

Would anyone else like explain atproto app like im 5? I'm taking requests

if you are/were a Tome user and would be willing to share your data export, shoot me a dm

So there’s the For You feed, posts liked by people whose posts you’ve liked. What about the other way around? A Like Me feed of posts liked by people who’ve liked your posts

Who would read a blog post about how this outcome can be avoided in the future AND serve all kinds of reader communities without settling for good reads?
