Just finished reading this. @tur.so Y'all are completely crazy in the best possible way. I think this actually makes sense, as ridiculous as it sounds.
We're building Postgres in Rust. Using the LLVM of databases
Turso is becoming the LLVM of databases: one modern, reliable Rust core with many SQL frontends. After rewriting SQLite, we are now building Postgres.

I’ve been working on an Exaclidraw fork for about a week that syncs your drawings to your Atmosphere account as well as uses Iroh for realtime encrypted end to end collaborative work. I feel like it’s at a stage where I can share it. Meet lexidraw.app!
Lexidraw, an Excalidraw fork where your drawings follow you
Lexidraw is an Excalidraw fork where your drawings follow you. Share publicly with the Atmosphere or privately with iroh.

I'm conservative with my follows and the result is that my following feed is essentially identical to my For You feed, interestingly. Not entirely sure what that means, if anything. 🙃
This is why @atproto.science is so relevant rn This compilation of essays indicates that scientists are most frustrated by insufficient “community tools and resources... Essential infrastructure for sharing, maintaining and building on existing work and data is also badly underdeveloped." >

You know what I want: a "headless" PDS. @roomy.space needs a way to create an ATProto account for every space that is created. That means we need a legit PDS repo. We don't want to implement a PDS ourselves, so we'd rather use Tranquil or the reference PDS.
@atstore.fyi where did this verified entry for Roomy come from? atstore.fyi/products/roo... There's also this one, which looks like the "updates" and "mentions" section is working more properly on: atstore.fyi/products/roomy
This is cool, I just left an @atstore.fyi review on @standard-reader.app right inside of the Standard Reader App. It prompted for auth again so that it could request the scopes needed to write the review, but I didn't have to leave standard reader my review instantly shows up on its store listing.
Introducing Fluoddity3D! Now with updated docs/tooltips and a drastically pared-down interface. Any testing/bug reports greatly appreciated! github.com/aphid91/Fluo...
Yes, it's ATProto's best kept secret than an ATProto app is like 85% just a "normal" web application.
it would be nice to have a blogged version of this. i think protocol devs shot themselves in the foot a little by calling it an AppView. "AppViews are expensive to run" sounds AppView-specific. whereas it's really "a backend for millions of users is expensive to run", which you just don't have to do
I think I can stop when there's finally a protocol that can support our plans for @roomy.space. 😁 ATProto permissioned data here we come! 🚀
Zicklag go one month without a backend migration: challenge impossible
Our migration last Friday went great and Roomy stayed up without babysitting all week-end! Everything went according to plan that time. 😀 Today's devlog talks more about what the next steps are and how we plan to get Roomy running completely on ATProto.

@leaflet.pub I've got a little UI issue. In a thin window, I'm unable to edit my footnote without the toolbar covering it up.
Doing some recreational coding today. Having some fun playing with zero-copy deserialization for the first time. Combining docs.rs/rkyv and docs.rs/yoke is pretty cool.
rkyv - Rust
rkyv is a zero-copy deserialization framework for Rust.

Phew! I just finished a big migration of the @roomy.space data to our refactored AppView! The new refactor stores the Roomy messages directly in the AppView instead of on our separate Leaf server, which was made for our pre-ATProto architecture. The goal is to improve simplicity and reliability.
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 👀👀
On Atproto and Atmospheric Groups
I'm starting A Fresh Blog(tm), this time on Pckt. I wanted a dedicated space to post about development, atproto, and community thoughts, and a new space felt like the right place for it. Plus I wanted to get in on standard.site summer while it's still ongoing. Before I get into any of that, though, an introduction. As of a little over a month ago, I work at Bluesky! Before that I was a staff engineer at GitHub, and a long time before that I have a background in public health, which colors a lot ...

Dear ATmosphere developers and users, I usually don't make these kinds of posts. But just this once, I'd like you all to sign a petition to make sure our privacy stays important in the modern web. You can read more in the attached thread below. (1/3) 🧵 www.change.org/chat-control...

Hey folks I'm looking for some work! Contracting jobs related to ATProto would be a great fit if anybody needs any help along those lines. I'm very good at Rust, I use a lot of TypeScript, and I'm in deep on the Atmosphere. I'm also used to just figuring out whatever I need to. 😁
The Atmosphere has the potential to rethink not just social media and related applications but also organizational and economic structures. For example: the @roomy.space developers thinking about how to adapt open source principles and licensing to a new era blog.muni.town/open-source-.... 1/

It's been almost a week since we announced Roomy's general availability and we've definitely got some stuff to fix! We'll be trying to make some development notes as we go, and here's the first one.

Looking at all the tech burnout chat today and realizing that I think getting involved in ATProto has really saved my career. The future is bleak but having something hopeful about it in ATProto and the promise of the open web is keeping me going and excited.
I can't tell you how much this project has been and continues to be a labour of love. I will write more about it when I'm less in the thick of it, but I'm so excited to be able to share more with you about the work we've been doing - I'm so proud of how far we came in the last few months
hey so, @roomy.space is now generally available for real-world use! 🥳 make atmospheric group spaces for friends & community, chat in real-time, progressively structure emergent topics into evergreen threads and cultivate enduring knowledge.
