It's 2026, why am I still having to defend the FACT that @wikipedia.org is a reliable source? we must dispel this propaganda
maybe im late to the party, but shutting down your iPhone doesn't stop it from running background processes...

An app using atproto should be a quiet implementation detail most of the time and not a selling point im ngl
Im curious to see if the new HTTP method QUERY will change some of the calls used in XRPC #atproto

Daniel@d3ol.dev · last mo.1. there are guides out there on how to deploy your own relay. I wrote one under for Blacksky 2. Ownership was transferred to an independent org in Sep 2025 3. I agree that protocol development feels closed off to any non-bsky devs. Hoping that changes soon

you won't attract enough users to break away from walled garden network effects by talking about atproto, the atmosphere, and bluesky. you build a product they need and will use daily, and you add social features because they are a good fit for the experience. atproto is an implementation detail.

Turns out you can build a high throughput verification and archival engine that can keep pace with black swan events on consumer electronics. You just have to get real close to the silicon and shave a piece of yourself off into the project during the process. I'm gonna touch grass. #atdev #atproto

I've met @rude1.blacksky.team and he's a great guy. He gave me the opportunity to contribute to #blacksky and #atmosphere. I took this clip of Rudy with the mic, and it made it easier for me to see myself contributing to this space. There are more like me, they could use impacting too🙌🏾
Rude1 Haunted Badness. ⁂@rude1.blacksky.team · 6mo agoLots of secret hostility. - Rudy is a hack - Blacksky is a semi-proprietary ethnocentric social network just “popping up” - Blacksky is masquerading as fully open source would you all like me to still speak at #AtmosphereConf this year? I don’t have to.

McDonalds is not the only burger shop. Just because something's been done before, doesn't mean it'll be the same when you do it.
In 2025, the first two Umoya Fellows attended the inaugural #ATmosphereConf. Since then, they've been behind the scenes and in community working on @blackskyweb.xyz projects like @tektite.cc & documentation. Blacksky is more than tech and the Umoya Fellowship welcomes allllll that we are.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
While I sympathize with people upset at Senate Democrats for caving, not receiving a check for a whole month+ is crazy
