Celebrating one year of all of us
Will you look at us, still employed!
I know this isn't as easy as it sounds, but my favorite cycling journalists laid off after a bad acquisition banded together to start an independent publication. It's going pretty well. escapecollective.com/celebrating-...

I had a really nice time at #fosdem, but it mostly flew by too quickly to get into meaningful conversations. Hallways were too loud.
If we host another atproto/ipfs meetup in the future, would you join a longer one with actual time to talk / draw / hack?

Adversarial ATProto PDS Migration | Blog
This one from @retr0.id is well-written, but the process requires too much command line magic for even tech-savvy regular people.

@molly.wiki wrote a very good Substack -> Ghost migration guide a while back. ATProto could use the same for migrating your PDS.

Impeccable curation:
Right after I talked about 4 ways to β₯οΈ/πΏ browsers, @flockofbirbs.bsky.social @spritelyinst.bsky.social is up next saying break up the browser monoliths, browsers should just be a shell for WASM.

itβs not a perfect metaphor, but in terms of social responsibility i think operating an autonomous AI agent account on Bluesky is like having a child, pet, or familiar β if it causes issues in public or bothers people, you as the βparentβ are responsible even when youβve done due diligence
