#atproto is nuts. I’ve never had the experience where I’ve downloaded a new social app, opened it, and everyone is already there. That was the experience I just had with #Popfeed. Absolutely bonkers

new ozone release just went out github.com/bluesky-soci... this one contains react version upgrade to address the latest CVE along with a bunch of new features. shout out to @jefffwithag.bsky.social on his first set of contributions to the repo along with a few other folks for helping out!

I've had this idea for a while, but what if you built a desktop UI on top of atproto data... and what if that UI looked cyberpunk AF? Here's a first look at Aether OS, a desktop-like interface with system and lexicon apps powered by your data.

yea idt i can accurately describe how underwhelming this machine is. immediately returned the one that i tested out

Last night's release image had a dependency issue which broke some ozone instances. This new release contains the fix for it github.com/bluesky-soci... Please upgrade your image version to get the new one. Apologies for the inconvenience.

This version has a dependency issue which is breaking most endpoints. Team's working on getting a patch out. I'll publish a new version as soon as that's ready!

Long overdue but the react CVE thing gave me the push needed to get a new version of ozone out github.com/bluesky-soci... I'd normally give a heads ups a couple days before release but this one is time sensitive so just hit the release button. Thanks @esb.lol for the assist!

Been building on the Atmosphere? The official Lexicon codegen tooling has some rough edges for third-party devs: • Bundle bloat • Painful maintainability • Inflexible client/server modes Wrote up the pain points (and there might be a solution coming 👀)

I've finally written that blog post about how I ran the blue.mackuba.eu app on both MySQL and Postgres in parallel on two servers, testing and comparing them for six months, and how that went 😅

currently reading "foundryside" - robert jackson bennet. thanks for the recommendation @jaz.bsky.social few chapters in, i'm totally hooked 🪝

"i am haunted by humans" - what a fucking ending! what a book!!

new ozone release v0.1.98 just went out github.com/bluesky-soci... lots of goodies there but im over the moon to finally have fixed the labeler profile editor bug. mod tool metadata, workspace batch id and label grouping should make mod life a lot easier!

finally fixed an annoying issue on ozone and just in time for the next release! this upcoming version will have a bunch of new things but im particularly excited about labeler grouping, mod tool metadata and workspace batch info features. lots to play with for 3p labelers there!

been slacking on my audiobooks lately. started a couple books but couldn't stick through. currently reading "the book thief" - markus zusak and so far, it's been a great listen!

long awaited but so glad it's finally happening 🎉

new ozone release v0.1.97 just went out github.com/bluesky-soci... this brings back the ability to view custom lexicon records.

Ozone release coming out tomorrow. This primarily fixes custom lexicon record viewing but there's a few more goodies in there.

new ozone release v0.1.96 just went out github.com/bluesky-soci... really excited about the labeler profile editor but there's a few crucial bugfixes in there too!

planning to do an ozone release this week, most probably later tomorrow. A few really small but super helpful adjustments in this one but mostly excited to get the new UI based labeler definition manager out.

this appears to be breaking docker build for some folks. i'm investigating and will release a fix as soon as I can but in the meantime, please rollback to 0.1.93 using these instructions github.com/bluesky-soci...

new ozone release v0.1.94 just went out github.com/bluesky-soci... main "big feature" here is verifications but also contains a bunch of goodies that should make mod life a lot easier!

going to do an ozone distro release tomorrow. got a number of small UI & UX improvements lined up along with the entire verification feature.

got an air fryer for the first time. idk if im using it wrong or if everyone hyping it up just has a lower bar for cooking but everything comes out either undercooked or burnt from this thing.

no power outage in turin yet!

currently reading "genesis" - henry kissinger. fascinating look at ai and its future. a bit sensationalized at times but very enjoyable!

i was sick through the long weekend and ended up scrolling a lot through reels. few observations 1. italians are soo fucking unhinged on reels it's kinda funny 2. the normalized racism feels like a core part of being on it 3. idk what algo hell i got put into i get no informative content.

What we’ve launched today is the first step for how we’re going to evolve verification. The initial set of trusted verifiers includes news orgs who’ve agreed to take on the task of verification for their journalists. In the future, this set will expand, as well as how apps can choose to use them.

weird rainy morning and i cant see the mountains. cant wait for them to show up above the clouds.

audible emailed me about spring sales like 3 times and i kept putting it off. now that im finally getting my next book, the sale just expired 🤦🏽‍♂️

upgraded from next v14 to next v15.... it was kinda smooth tbh! but also, my bar may be very low for this type of thing.

This is an article that I've wanted to write for over a year, and I finally got the chance to do it! Atproto Ethos is a deep dive into how we think about protocol design - its influences, the core innovations, and the opinionated takes that we've adopted

🔜

after 2 years of being fucked by a constructions company, we have finally moved into our remodelled apartment, our first home, last week. it's slowly starting to feel like normal to be here but every time i look out the window and see the snowy caps of the alps, it just feels so unreal! grateful 🙏🏽

Hey devs, this is an exciting one! Just put up an early proposal for OAuth scopes in the atproto network. Eager to hear thoughts github.com/bluesky-soci...

made a great route plan through belgium, luxembourg and switzerland for our drive back to italy. i have a half broken car, half broken wife and all i gotta do is keep them both from fully breaking down and drive 1500kms. wish me luck cause i know ill need it.

Speaking at #SXSW in conversation with @mmasnick.bsky.social soon — 1pm in Ballroom D!

this book talks about bluesky and big chicken collusion in the same chapter. if that's not convincing you to start reading it rn, idk what will

I'm gonna be speaking here!!
