Alright, Bluesky discourse seems to be pretty light on this beautiful Friday, now to just take a giant sip of coffee and check in on what's happening

But don't say "guten Tag" — they're not actually German!

I'll go against the discourse. 280 contributors to repo.npmx.dev in 100 days. We only used bluesky for social comms. We asked while welcoming folks, and most of them got involved after reading our bsky posts. Thanks for building and running bluesky. This network is a great place to do open source 💙

At Proto is literally the World Wide Web I always wished I had

The protocol is now feature complete.

The @pdx.atproto.camp team is cooking up something very cool for @cascadiajs.com and I'm getting VERY excited about it 👀 If you aren't attending yet, you should! The vibes and connections are wonderful and it's a great spot to meet other technologists in the PNW 😎

Special guests??? [crowd begins to murmur excitedly] This just in, they will NOT be bringing their cat [sounds of crushing disappointment]

Thank you for sticking with us while we took last week off to work on a bit of a revamp. See you tomorrow!

not to get too ahead of some other stuff i'm working on but i think every news org should be able to build experiences like this that they own via atproto. once permissioned data lands you can tie in business models really well. "substack on atproto" is too narrow, we can do better.

Introducing marque.at, a domain registrar built on the AT Protocol, made by the creators of @margin.at Check it out: marque.at

One vision of an atmospheric web is the fun of the golden age of Tumblr minus the centralized platform. Each of these post types roughly maps to an existing atproto app (@standard.site, @semble.so, @kipclip.com, @stream.place, @grain.social) your personal site would aggregate them all.

That's right. (I'm as guilty as anyone of leaning a bit too hard into the "social" framing, gotta set up a swear jar)

Most of the time integrations on @standard.site are social first, article second, but The Social Wire tries to flip that script I’m excited to see how this starts to integrate with other platforms as well like @ghost.org or @flipboard.com or even platforms like @germnetwork.com in the future

I am going to use the hell out of this

Just noticed this fun little @sill.social detail where showing all the accounts that are discussing a story turns it into a sticky header that you can then collapse without having to scroll back up. Nice.

i analogize acorn to box seats at a sports game – you see the spectacle, but with the people you care about with you. you get community feeds to gather, and community moderation that protects you on the broader network as opposed to the default solitary torture machine that is modern social media

Is Bluesky dying? Is it the community's fault? Should people here refrain from criticizing journalists who think J. K. Rowling might have a point? The thing is, it doesn't matter. Because the answer isn't to make Bluesky change. It's to take advantage of Bluesky's tech to build something else.

Aturi is a delightful app for exploring the atmosphere, the name though. The name is :chef-kiss:

Not to make promises on Alex’s roadmap, this going to be a groundbreaking role. The work ahead is figuring out how to integrate the atmosphere, amp up discovery across atproto apps, let people create entirely new social experiences. Think much, much bigger than microblogging or even existing social.

Go ahead and subscribe to @codetv.dev now so you don’t miss it

Huge nerds (complimentary)

For the cross-posting sickos among us, I’ve been using Indigo (and Croissant) for a while.

About to have the best work day ever with @bryn.codes @dame.is @awarm.space @pds.dad and @zeu.dev (plus @jimray.locket.computer and @jason.energy off camera!)

@flashes.blue is now interoperable with @grain.social and @sprk.so displaying stories that were created in any of these apps.

Strong agree with the latest @garbageday.email. The flattening of everything (text into microblog, video into shortform vertical, music into tiktokcore) is corrosive. I wonder if atproto's interoperability story can't improve upon this. www.garbageday.email/p/there-s-no...

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!

Great example of how atproto and the PDS model doesn’t only make *social* web apps easier to make, it really reduces the burden of app-making in general. Org-account functionality is very commonly absent from any SaaS upstart due to the added complexity. Now any atmospheric app gets it for free.

howdy #nyc! this semester I co-taught Creative Computing in Education @cuny.edu for the Teachers on Sabbatical program. Our students are having their showcase at the @cunypitlab.bsky.social in the Oculus World Trade Center. Come stop by and see some really awesome work they've done! May 18th 12:30

Randomly rolled a Guarded Dreamweaver on @rpg.actor and that feels like a pretty apt description of DevRel. rpg.actor/jimray.locket.computer

[email protected]: ## sysinit olamaelcu.net/blog/2026/sy... is the first post out the press. yap and clap!

Based on my proposal from a couple weeks ago, I submitted a PR to the community lexicon repo for bookmark permission sets: github.com/lexicon-comm... There are machine translations for the top 5 languages on Bluesky in here, would love if anyone could help verify that they read correctly!

We have some news you can use on the blog this fine Monday! Ozone, our mod tool, is adding a new *report-based* moderation workflow, which enables higher-context moderating, better collaboration, auditing, and more! Check it: atproto.com/blog/report-...

I've been hard at work this weekend getting both @opensocial.community and @collectivesocial.app in a better spot, and I'm excited to see where they're at! Just in time for the book club to kick off a new book 😎 What are you reading or want to read soon?

We're getting into the good stuff now, pour yourself a cool beverage on this lovely spring Friday and take this one in.

Hey all, gonna move office hours to next week, we're cooking on something we think you'll be excited about

Oh that's an instant subscribe

Europe needs independent social infrastructure, not just an app. This is what we're building. eurosky.tech/build/

Folks. This is very good.

This is, like, 40% of understanding atproto

Acorn has launched a way for organizations and creators to build their own online communities as an alternative to centralized social media platforms. Acorn’s platform hails from Blacksky, a company building its own decentralized social media toolkit around the AT Protocol. #BlackskyNews

If people have ideas on how to flesh out a “migrating your app to atproto” guide please take a look at this wiki page I put in the forum
