We need good funding models for #atproto things: 1) to create opportunities for all the people who would love to make a living by working on something meaningful, *and also* 2) so we can all benefit together from each other's skills, ideas and energy. the-better-future.offprint.app/a/3mkommpvxr...

For my first blog post, I've written some thoughts on open-source, StratosFund, and financial sustainability paths for Atproto. I hope it gets some interesting conversations started. #offprint https://the-better-future.offprint.app/a/3mkommpvxr523-a-better-open-source-future

This is a session I might propose for Minnebar, a tech unconference here in MN. The deadline is tonight at midnight, sorry I'm so last minute. If anyone has feedback, especially about whether I should or shouldn't associate my App Wizard with Atproto Mpls, please let me know. #atmosphere #atproto 1/

Minneapolis folks, this is tonight, Wednesday, April 15. Our first #atproto meetup. Whether you're building something or want to learn more about the tech behind #bluesky. All are welcome. No agenda for this one, very casual. Walker Library in Uptown, Isles Conference Room, 7-8 PM. #atmosphere

OK, it's official, we'll be meeting in the Isles Conference Room at the Walker Library in Uptown, from 7-8 PM on Wednesday, April 15 to discuss and demo ATProto things. #atmosphere #atproto @j3s.sh

I changed my handle via settings before the conf & it broke my atmosphereconf.org about me page, so I undid it. I want to be clear I'm not affiliated with the hacker mag (big fan tho), or Atari(?). But if I change it, what else breaks? What about ppl who move to their own domains, do they vanish?

“The ultimate hidden truth of the world is that it is something that we make, and could just as easily make differently,” David Graeber I've loved this quote since I first read it, but today I'm really feeling that second part, we *could just as easily make it differently* #atmosphereconf

I just submitted to present at #ATmosphereConf

I don't post much here (yet, at least), mostly follow atproto, decentralization, tech things. I'm yetanotherjonwilson on discord and github.
