Some good news: the team at @bsky.app just awarded Gifthood a $2,000 AT Protocol grant. Thank you, sincerely. It means a lot that the people building the open network believe in what we're trying to do to build stronger connections among neighbors.

Good morning. Notifications have gotten a bit of a sprucing up, as we say around here 🌲. You now have fine-grained control over what the app may bug you with and what should go unnotified. Find it under Settings → Notification Settings

Gifthood.community notification settings page. A 'Notify me on this device' toggle is off, while a master 'Allow notifications' toggle is on. Below it, individual toggles for Messages, Interest in your listings, New followers, Notes on your listings, Exchange updates, and New listings nearby are all on. A distance selector for nearby listings is set to 'Same as my feed (within ~5 km),' with options for ~1.2 km and ~5 km.

Congratulations to @brittanyellich.com on her first month at Bluesky. Gifthood is actively (as time allows) participating in Atmospheric Groups on Atproto, as I feel this will be an important aspect for many future participants in a healthy mutual aid platform that Gifthood strives to become.

Hello! I've been at Bluesky for a bit over a month now and have a lot of thoughts, which are now going to be tucked away in this cute lil blog on @pckt.blog First up: Atmospheric Groups, an effort that we are working on in the Atmosphere community that I'm very excited about 👀👀

You know, it's a funny thing. My neighbor has a ladder. I need a ladder maybe twice a year. So what did I do? I bought a ladder. Now there are two ladders sitting in two garages, doing nothing, forty feet apart.
