ok im sick of waiting for apple to review the iOS app, so in the meantime if you like birds, see birds, and want to record your bird sightings then check out birds.place! it runs on free tier cloudflare and @microcosm.blue

If you've backfilled the network before, you probably noticed the 65k bridged accounts you couldn't sync. …until a week ago! Bridgy Fed's `getRepo` is now open, and served by Hubble!

🟠 relay2.fire.hose.cam dropped most of its PDS connections and stayed disconnected for a period. recovery started on its own and is almost complete. events may be delayed until it finishes catching up

My weird little participatory art project that utilizes the AT Protocol and Bluesky posts as a medium now has its own page on my website featuring visualizations of the data, lists of participants, and orphaned replies found via @microcosm.blue backlinks https://dame.is/creating/3mrlnl6oyuj2d

I began this social art experiment in June 2025 and have “performed” it periodically since. My intent was to explore what it would look like to use a social media post as a medium for art (not for sha...

i would like your help with an experimental social art project this post is the project the goal of this post is for it to receive ZERO likes… only replies, reposts, or quotes allowed if it receives a like, i will immediately turn off replies, thereby sealing & finishing it this is take #12

reddwarf.app utilise l'api constellation de @microcosm.blue qui est indépendant de Bluesky. Constellation est un registre écoutant le relais et qui conserve le graphe des records. Reddwarf récupère ensuite le contenu via directement les PDS des utilisateurs ou une autre API slingshot de microcosm.

Thanks for all the love and for signal boosting 🤍 Sign my PDS-based guestbook!! It used to be super lofi & technical to interact with, but the new site lets you login with Atmosphere OAuth and easily leave me a note saying you were there! Powered by @microcosm.blue backlinks! dame.is/welcoming

Sign in with any atproto account and leave a note that you were here. Every signature lives on the signer’s own PDS and reaches this page as a backlink.

We backfill from tangled's own sh.tangled.* lexicons and listen live via jetstream, using @microcosm.blue constellation tool Sadly, we built this before the @tangled.org team shipped Bobbin, their new own read API. But it makes tangled-stars more independant! Here's the look for @lichen.wiki

A big thank you to @microcosm.blue to make it possible to implement this feature with Constellation.

Recently @mu.social started showing verification badges from @eurosky.social and other trusted verifiers. Read their vision on verification here. You can now see those verifications in Skywalker too 🧵3/6

There are in fact over 3100 independent PDS account hosts blue.mackuba.eu/directory/pd... As well as @microcosm.blue created by @bad-example.com

Local-First Conf@localfirstconf.com · last mo.

@jakelazaroff.com on stage now talking about local first fits great with atproto. Learning lots about what a PDS user account hosting is, & how to connect into CRDTs.

Constellation from @microcosm.blue is awesome. @mackuba.eu thanks for enlightening me! With Constellation I can display verifications from @eurosky.social or other verifiers in @skywalker.thereforeiam.eu

🙋‍♂️ want a zero-config backup of your github repos and think @tangled.org is pretty cool? then synchub.to is for you! 👉 it's a github app that automatically syncs your public github repos to tangled ✨ let me know what you think! 🙏

Built using @svelte.dev , Layer Charts from @techniq.dev, and Ufos from @microcosm.blue tangled.org/willow.sh/ta...

Something I threw together to show the `sh.tangled.repo` activity

fyi, I'm hosting an instance of slingshot from @microcosm.blue now! Will be some hiccups as I figure it out, but it's live and working. slingshot.cute.haus

Here’s a screen recording showcasing how you can tap on the word tiles of a post poem to see the exact post the word came from — the post URIs are saved to the poem’s PDS record, so you can easily see backlinks via @microcosm.blue anisota.net

AT Mot: introducing AT Mot, a small experiment to rebuild Wordle on AT Proto. Give it a try! This was mostly an excuse to play with Constellation, as @pevohr.bsky.social suggested a few days ago. Thank you! herve.bzh/at-mot-i-reb...

hello! yeah! quite a lot of PLC progress (and some left to go). (warning: long thread) 1. there is an official reference read-replica implementation: github.com/did-method-p... the official read-replica is better than the Allegedly reference-server-wrapper that i made, in two important ways:

@bogosbinted69420.bsky.social · 2mo ago

hello, has there been progress on this since the writeup? thank you for your work, i'm not grasping the full extent of it but i'm really interested in decentralization of the atmosphere

Everything we’re building at @eurosky.social is possible because of the work of many others and we’re proud of it. From the AT Protocol to PDS to data tools to apps - it’s possible because of @bsky.app @blackskyweb.xyz @microcosm.blue and many others. Nothing would have been possible without them.

I decided to make use of some older hardware I had lying around to run some atproto infra. Meet wafflehouse.dev! - constellation.wafflehouse.dev, a @microcosm.blue constellation instance - slingshot.wafflehouse.dev, a microcosm slingshot instance - plc.wafflehouse.dev, a read only PLC mirror

Wafflehouse.dev

atproto selfhosted services hosted in the southeast.

So very grateful to have access to tools like @atproto.at , @pds.ls and @microcosm.blue to help inspect and audit the #ATmosphere 🌀 #ATproto 🪿

Chaos Graphia@chaosgraphia.xyz · 2mo ago

If you look at atproto.at or atproto.at/relays you see that wsocial only has a PDS - no relay, firehose, etc. All parts of the service are Bluesky infrastructure.

Unsurprisingly, the new @eurosky.social firehose is much faster for @sifa.id to connect to (compared to the standard bsky firehose) and on-par with the @microcosm.blue firehose (as all 3 are on 🇪🇺 Hetzner servers) Well done team, big wins for atproto independence and decentralization this week! 👏👏👏

Eurosky Social@eurosky.social · 2mo ago

Make that 4/4 - how about a bonus release to end the week? Jetstream now available at jetstream1.eurosky.network What it is 👇

slingshot now has a CLI flag to use a custom PLC directory/mirror, like plc.eurosky.network (or plc.wtf !) thanks @byjp.me for the PR!

PSA to all lightrail operators: please update to v0.1.1 (latest on main) Fixes a bug where lightrail sends excessive requests to PDSes for `com.atproto.sync.listRepos`.

I switched Sifa's atproto identity resolution over to Slingshot (@bad-example.com's edge cache) and really glad I did! Resolving a handle/DID to its PDS now comes back verified in one cached call. ~100% served in prod, zero misses so far (the old resolver could hang on a 30s timeout 😅)

userinput.app has no backend ! it’s powered by @microcosm.blue ❣️ if you find it useful and want to support open, community funded infrastructure, consider giving your money to @bad-example.com 😇

Time to depend even less on bsky infrastructure

microcosm: atproto building blocks@microcosm.blue · 2mo ago

yeah! constellation.microcosm.blue/xrpc/blue.mi... should get them. if you just need the count, constellation.microcosm.blue/xrpc/blue.mi... (might be missing follows created before 2025, earlier backfill is coming, hopefully this summer)
