Welcome to the gang of cool atproto apps @glean.at pdscheck.dev atmospheremail.com @atls.city 👋

Introducing Disperse: an experimental sharesheet that allows you to share to several Atmosphere services at once. At launch, it supports @bsky.app, @blackskyweb.xyz, @semble.so, @margin.at, @rabbithole.land, @kipclip.com, and @sill.social, with more planned. 1/

hey #atproto enthusiasts and devs: i feel like i'm missing a site or two or more from this list, help? my list: @atproto.brussels @atstore.fyi @atmosphereaccount.com @blueskydirectory.com @atprotoalternatives.com @atproto.garden alternativeproto.net store.stucco.software aternative.to

handle changed from loves.brussels to atproto.brussels to make it less schizophrenic maintaining this account 😛

Yesterday Bluesky went down. @eurosky.social servers worked but we couldn't communicate as we don't have an app. Our next step is to build everything we need to operate without Bluesky. We're raising €100,000 to build a European app backend supporting 100k+ users. Let's do this fund.eurosky.tech

We’re fundraising to build everything we need to operate without Bluesky. Our €100,000 target will accelerate our goal of building a European app backend (Appview) and a microblogging app. Since last night over 282 of you contributed more than €5,000. Let's do this! fund.eurosky.tech

They’ve imposed their twisted alternate reality on a large part of the public imagination (e.g. that migration is an existential threat to be feared instead of a human reality to be managed) and have managed to push out the true threats like the climate crisis, economic injustice, rising fascism…

Hello @kich.io ! 👋 Welcome to the gang of atproto apps! 🌮 atproto.brussels/atproto-apps

welcome @wavemsg.app to the atproto apps collection ! atproto.brussels/atproto-apps. 👋

Only about half of the folks we sent emails to saying their accounts were nearly ready went through the following step, so it’s possible many of our emails ended in spam - do have a look in your spam folder! The subject is “Your Eurosky.social account is nearly ready!”

Can yall share your stories for your *very* first introduction to what the internet was? I'd love to hear how you wrestled with the idea of going to intangible spaces. replies or quotes would be great, I'll add mine later.

I want to do markdown right on ATProto. First run at a lexicon: putting it up for comment. What do people think? markpub.at

Some changes here: our website is now atproto.brussels to reflect better its atproto onboarding content. (The PDS remains loves.brussels)

Here is a tutorial explaining how you can setup your own AT protocol Personal Data Server (PDS) on a Synology NAS. 🥸 (That's where @loves.brussels is based )

So: Brussels finally has a government, after 613 days deadlock. Next time, they could use www.agoracitizen.network

Trying to grasp the distribution of PDSes around the world. I experiment with reverse-ip geolocation (using maxMind), and I get this. Do you know of a better way to solve that? Do PDSes advertise their geolocation/ hosting country ? who.loves.brussels/other-pds

US Rep. Stansbury: “The United States government is engaged in an active cover-up of the largest [rape] trafficking [case] and influence peddling [case] in the history of the United States, and Donald Trump is right at the center of it.” #OpDeathEaters #EpsteinCoverup #EpsteinFiles

613 days. That's how long Brussels has been without proper governance. Monitor and understand why here governance.brussels/en

Today, @bsky.app + @atprotocol.dev devs can plug into XMTP to give users what they've been asking for: quantum-encrypted, secure group chats that scale to millions. With our XMTPID identity model, it's finally here. 1/5
