Had so much fun at #AtmosphereConf in Vancouver meeting and connecting with these awesome prospective leaflet users!!! So grounding!!

It's a fun idea but I dislike the idea of special casing a handle. It goes against the grain of the rest of the web's affordances imo. Also I like the dot! What a magical typographic element. Makes words webby!

I can envision at least three separate businesses bigger than substack (in terms of actual value created) built on top of standard.site each with their own value props. When you go from moats to roads you stop building castles and start building cities and *everybody* gets a whole lot richer.

I think this would be the single highest impact thing bsky could do, over unfurls or longform authoring in app!

Does anyone have any thoughts/writing/posts about feed services publication and resolution mechanism? Like, why route through the did:web services, why not just publish the xrpc endpoint in the service definition record directly? I'm like 80% sure I get it but it's not quite pulling together.

jeez the nepotism in this industry

Hello I am testing some annoying bug issues!

Why is unicity ( same set of keys + values = same tree regardless of order added) an important property of merkle search trees, in the context of atproto?

Yooo, are there any bay area atproto folks around?? @cozylittle.house and I are gonna be in town 14-24th! Would love to hang out!!

This is huge! Love it!

I'm a protocol nerd, a true believer, and even to me it seemed impossible Navigating the social media environment, politics, technical requirements, building a team to handle it all, required foresight, integrity and more hard work than I imagine I'm so excited for what comes next, thank you Jay!

Shout-out lesswrong, reading something on there is what inspired me to get this done and I took a lot of design cues from em!

Unexpected benefit of implementing cover images on leaflet: I now sometimes hit links on bsky and only discover they're published with leaflet after they open and get a surprise hit of woo-i-made-something-people-use dopamine

Collection + publication is an *excellent* combo!

Insane we didn't have this for so long lmao. Thank you @grahame.fyi for finally making our editor meet basic expectations!!!

Stan dard site.

This gui demo from a decade+ ago is a lil goofy, but I would kill for a giant trackpad I could map regions on to do different things, ideally with little haptic bumps to differentiate them. web.archive.org/web/20201112...

trying out niri for a couple days side scrolling uis are interesting, we tried a lot of stuff w/ leaflet before ending up with that for subpages. They work really well on arbitrary screen sizes, and allow for pretty intuitive naviagtion.

I think notifications in general are an underappreciated element of social media design. Would love to see the atmosphere create new things here!

what ui affordances could make posts like this better? bsky feed reader inside leaflet so it's easier to find the posts? Better search for finding them? Thread embedder vs individual posts?

I have been waiting for this day for so long I don't even know why

Introducing Wireservice. Today, it's a WordPress plugin in alpha for publishing to @standard.site. Tomorrow, it's... another longform content lexicon? A news aggregation app on atproto? We'll see. wordpress.wireservice.net/index.php/20...

This is the kinda shit that won't be necessary in the standard.site world Publish on your own beautiful blog, get access to the same distribution network everyone does (Also, omg new michael nielsen essay!)

Right now the leaflet's what's hot algo takes into account likes on the bluesky post linked to the standard.site post. We *could* also take into account likes on *all* bluesky posts that link to the blog post. Thoughts?

now that we have this basic reader stuff working on thing I really want to tackle is to give you more ways to do things to a post. You should be able to excerpt into your common place book, add your own private notes, save to myriad (semble? margin?) collections.

Super thorough walkthrough of implementing a hosted pds for an app! I'm seeing more and folks doing this and hope more and more will!

psa we're going to be shipping a "what's hot" type feed soon, so start hitting that recommend button on stuff u like!!

Standard.site documentation is live ! We’re excited to share resources that broaden access to publishing on the social web. Explore core concepts, lexicon definitions, verification flow, and more. We can't wait to see what you'll build: standard.site/docs/introdu...

Quotes are slightly borked so doing more testing.

agh our appview indexer was broken for a bit because of an @atproto/lexicon package mismatch which was causing blobs to fail validation. Should be fixed now!

Another reason is that having your subscribes public is great for those you subscribe to! There's lots of really cool discovery and social features that are possible with this! Not to mention just the feedback of knowing people are subscribed to what you put out.

whats your single purpose utility web tool that you have unreasonable loyalty to? mine is this unremarkable diff checker for some reason www.diffchecker.com

btw I am going to be in London for Protocols for Publishers! Getting in monday morning and leaving Friday afternoon. Would love to chat / scheme with any atproto folks in town!

I "I'm feeling lucky"'d the search term "cars" and got this banger post from @drewski669.bsky.social comparing different motosports the-filthy-casual.leaflet.pub/3mchvobsbvs2b

this is kinda crazy right?

was feeling sleepy so I turned on the flood lights in my office and now i am not as sleepy 😎 (caffeine might also have contributed but was imbibed pre sleepiness so idk)

testing to see if our feeds are working properly!

Anybody in nyc got a metal detector?

Honestly this was a huge pain in the ass 😅 I think lexicon evolution is 100% doable and all the foundations are there but we're going to need to figure out application patterns to deal with it better.

hmmm i sense some leaves blowing in the wind, must be a storm a comin

fun fact, a post going viral on furry bluesky gets approx the same amount of views as something hitting the hackernews front page (also sorry to all the publishers, we'll get u actual analytics on your posts soon so you can see this stuff as well!)

The Enclose Horse Tapestries. 1495–1505, Wool warp with wool, silk, silver, and gilt wefts

I haven't seen it yet personally but I think y'all are wrong on hating on the Post box on the top of feeds. It's not likely to make people post *less* and anything that gets folks to post more on the margins is a win. It disappears once you scroll so it's not permanent clutter either!

banger domain and aesthetics, let's go surf the doc web!

The unreasonable effectiveness of Going Somewhere and Sitting Down and Thinking until you Get Something Done

Read Terra Ignota and tell me what you think

I'm so glad @arstechnica.com exists. In what other publication are you going to find code snippets following claims about encryption like this?

github.com/electric-sql... is prety kewl! would love to see a datascript esque thing on top of it

working on the leaflet site.standard.* migrations today! I think to keep it clean, i should update all the comment records, etc to point to the new uris where I can, but that feels kinda messy. Any thoughts?

Damn we got markdown to leaflet, now leaflet to markdown, what's next??
