AT Protocol Community

Also, buried in here is an announcement: excited to announce we're kicking off a collaboration with @hypha.coop and @iroh.computer to build out the Streamplace protocol and replication features! (It's gonna be so good.)

Leaflet as a killer app for atproto? 👀✨🍃

If you can see this message (yay! You are a Bluesky AT Protocol enthusiast!)…

…and are in NYC, you should meet in Central Park next weekend.

Go team ATProto!

an example of fetching my top 10 rocksky artists with pdsfs. the command used is jq -r '.artist' app.rocksky.scrobble/* | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr | head -10

a something i've been hacking on:

✨ pdsfs: mount #atproto PDS repositories as a FUSE filesystem!

more info in the repo's readme: tangled.sh/@oppi.li/pdsfs

i've fetched my top 10 @rocksky.app artists with just jq and coreutils:

UFOs "what's hot today" 1. calendar rsvp +533% 2. tangled star +50% 3. 2048 stats +43% 4. 2048 game +43% 5. germnetwork keypackage +40% 6 leaflet publication +40%

it's a good atproto day ufos.microcosm.blue

Adversarial ATProto PDS Migration www.da.vidbuchanan.co.uk/blog/adversa...

aka how to migrate your account if your old PDS explodes, and how to prepare for it in advance

The @germnetwork.com team has been participating in the #e2eemessagingWG to figure out a way to have secure private group messaging that is compatible with ATProto.

They've shipped a proof of concept of using your account to do this!

You'll need to get on the waitlist as they slowly add people.

Germ DM x ATProto is Now in Beta Germ DM is now a Bluesky messenger.

It’s here! Germ DM is now an #ATProto messenger. Read our full announcement now.

YouTube video by AT Protocol Development, Tech Talks, and Events Tech Talk: Smoke Signal Turns One

Thanks to everyone who joined us for Nick's @smokesignal.events turns one Tech Talk.

This was our first time using Smoke Signal RSVPs and manual emailing, but we did get most folks onto the video call.

Here's the recording from the call.

Such a good read. @stream.place and the gang have been doing awesome work to take ATprotocol records and blobs to the next level.

Static read-only replicas are such a cool idea that needs to be explored. A large PDS needs CDN-like features that is on-protocol.

I'll be doing a talk on ATProto at Edcon in Osaka this September. This will be a bit like the one I did at @protocol.berlin except I won't be bitching about the Discover feed as it's getting pretty good lately

ATProtocol Record Proposal: Event Transfer Records Overview This proposal introduces the community.lexicon.calendar.transfer record type for the ATProtocol ecosystem. This record serves as a “sidecar” mechanism to indicate when a community.lexicon.cal...

I've been thinking about a new ATProtocol record type to solve a common problem in decentralized calendars: event ownership transfers

Picture this: you create an event for someone not yet on-network, then they join and want to claim it. How do we handle that transition smoothly? #lexicons

Eli is building @stream.place, which is aiming to be a complete Twitch streaming and eventually YouTube video solution, all ATProto compatible.

This is a technical deep dive on some of the architecture choices he has made.

It’s awesome to see so many different people making custom ATProto clients of all kinds.

Some people are new to social networks, some have tried a few others.

Welcome!

I'm planning to publish a standalone client soon. Who wants to beta test?

Yes will be posted early next week.

Smoke Signal A place for smoke signal users and developers.

Thanks everyone for joining us for the @smokesignal.events tech talk with @ngerakines.me!

We'll share video and presentation next week, if you want to get involved in building Smoke Signal core, hosting it locally, or seeing how you can use it for organizing events, please join the forum

Thanks to everyone who came out to tonight's event, and to @oppi.li for an amazing talk on how @tangled.sh is leveraging ATProto to build code socially online!

Thanks also to Newspeak House for hosting us! 💚

We'll return in Sept.; if you're interested in doing a talk please get in touch!

Can your Go skills power the future of social media? 📸

Bluesky is changing the game with ATProto, a decentralized protocol that’s reshaping how we think about online communities—and #golang developers are perfectly positioned to build what's next.

Yes, @smokesignal.events have this as a feature, and that's why you should check the "share email with organizer" (rather than the platform). The UX needs work!

And then we exported the list as CSV (built into SS) into Ghost.

We had 17 people not share email addresses on the event.

In just over 30min, we'll be kicking off our @smokesignal.events tech talk.

Would be great to see work on the TypeScript ATProto libraries so they work in Workers as mentioned in the article.

@tijs.org has been working on code that works in @val.town that also looks interesting & can be forked right in Val Town.

Great write up by @inanna.recursion.wtf of learning from @baileytownsend.dev’s Rust Statusphere example and deploying via Wasm in Cloudflare Workers.
