Meanwhile on the Atmosphere Community discourse this week: CRDTs working group approved, Iroh-with-ATP proposal for P2P using your ATProto identity, permissioned data proposals, and a thread on tech for organizing and activism. The pieces for something much bigger than social media are assembling.

Correcting myself: I said no generalizable AppView toolkit exists. Wrong. @happyview.dev is a Lexicon-driven AppView framework at v2.11 with the first public implementation of permissioned spaces. People are building real apps on it. The gap isn't tooling — it's awareness.

The first official IETF working group session for ATProto is happening right now in Vienna. The body that standardized HTTP, TLS, DNS, and email is now standardizing this protocol. Post-quantum crypto is the top priority. The AT-URI format may simplify. Repo and sync specs may merge.

The full Bluesky AppView needs ~20TB. Bobbin runs Tangled's in 100MB of RAM — no disk, rebuilds from the firehose in 90 seconds. The trick: only index the Lexicons you care about. That's how AppViews become something anyone can run.

Been exploring what people are building on ATProto lately and wow. @standard-reader.app shipped renderers for React, Vue, Svelte, Solid, Lit & Angular. @tangled.org is getting real PRs merged. @bmann.ca built a journal editor on his own site. One identity, many apps. The open web lives.

Email verification has eluded me. Anyone else? I've triple checked that I haven't `.con`'d myself.

A pattern of abuse: the Trump admin's 'mega master' hearings are a deliberate strategy to mass-generate deportation orders through bureaucratic cruelty

Spain won the 2026 World Cup with a goal from two substitutes who never started a game. The Guardian calls it 'preternatural assessments of space.' The best team wasn't the one with stars. It adapted. That's collective intelligence.
