#atproto

@DimlyLitCorners it seems that #ATProto has adopted CIDs and maybe some other pieces of IPFS so maybe piecemeal adoption will get us to standardization one day!

In the mean time, there's a P2P IPFS implementation that currently works in browsers using #ServiceWorkers! Each individual website would need to include this for it to work, but it's a start! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtIJXRgxjVA

New blog post: “Building a Custom Feed on ATProto Part 2: Text-to-Feed with BYOTA and Embedding Similarity”

Learning about Tangled.sh, a federated git forged using #atproto

https://tangled.sh/

Looks amazing, and seems to already work for decentralized repositories? Also the blog is quite interesting to read, to learn more about the technical implementation details

Bluesky Report #125 - this weeks #bluesky and #atproto news:

- Bluesky adds age verification system to comply with new UK law
- Eurosky is a new initiative from to build a commons content moderation system in the EU
- Bluesky aims to be the place for US soccer conversations

I've updated my template project of a #Bluesky feed service in #RubyLang, first time since 2023

No big changes, but I brought it up to date with what I have in my (private) live project, updated it to latest gem versions, and added several new sections in the readme about how feeds work & how the app is built. #atproto

Wild strategic open source project that nobody asked for but improves performance chime in https://tangled.sh/@rockorager.dev/lsr

Quem me deu o toque sobre esta possibilidade de conexão do #PIX no nível do protocolo foi o @robin, que integra o #FreeOurFeeds. Por isso, acho que seria estratégico que alguém do governo brasileiro acompanhasse as discussões técnicas neste nível. Por vários motivos, o #ATproto estaria mais próximo deste "experimento estratégico". Posso estar enganado…

I've been following ATProto's development from the sidelines since 2022, but I somehow missed this great take by @eloquence on Bluesky interoperability with Mastodon and ActivityPub: https://github.com/bluesky-social/atproto/discussions/1716

"We currently have two emerging alternatives to X that deserve to be taken seriously: the fediverse and BlueSky. The fediverse tends to attract folks who highly value open source in principle and practice; BlueSky tends to attract folks who are looking for a drop-in Twitter replacement.

In this context, I would argue that a clear commitment from the key parties (that includes @Gargron's Mastodon gGmbH and Bluesky the company) towards an interoperable social web is essential. We should be able to follow each other no matter where we decide to make our social media home. Even Mark Zuckerberg's Threads has at least made a commitment towards interoperability."

It's a good read. Year after year, it feels like ATProto and ActivityPub, Bluesky and Mastodon, couldn't be further apart. Even Nostr and WordPress support ActivityPub. We're seeing more servers and clients in the Fediverse adopting ActivityPub. As far as I know, 99% of ATProto is still powered by Bluesky's main server, which makes it not very decentralized. I wonder why anyone would want to set up a server for ATProto when ActivityPub is so much more widely used.

I see Bluesky and ATProto's future as just another private company, like the rest. It's easy to pretend decentralization and open source just for marketing.

Reuters reports on our Eurosky initiative whose goal it is to establish a full, legally compliant #ATProto stack in Europe. But not only that - we’re working on a commons moderation service that can act as an incubator for smaller ATProto devs.

Robin Berjon wrote an interesting article on #ActivityPub over #ATProto..

https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/robin-berjon-running-activitypub-over-atproto/3707

And now there is PDS ActivityPub support in ATProto..

https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/atproto-gets-pds-activitypub-support/5365

Starting to think Bluesky’s ATProtocol got a few things right that Mastodon and ActivityPub might have missed. Have a look at the “Why not use ActivityPub?” section in the ATProto FAQs. I think they make some compelling points. Is ATProto actually the better protocol for its intended purpose? #fediverse #atproto #bluesky #activitypub #mastodon https://atproto.com/guides/faq#why-not-use-activity-pub

"At the beginning I thought it would be a nice idea to have the different layers ... the complicated stuff like the big firehose as a service, and ... smaller services that connect to that big one, to ... lower the barrier to be part of the network.

But to implement a [PDS] is still so much to do ... it could be even impossible to do that with PHP on a shared hosting environment."

Q: "I was really high on interoperable social networking, and interoperable sites using #ActivityPub or #ATproto. It doesn’t matter to me, actually. At the end of the day, I just want to see more interoperability of these networks. Do you still think that’s going to happen?"

A: "Yeah, if I had a bet on one, actually, you know what I’d bet on is the #Matrix protocol, the dark horse in the corner."

@lauren
> There is a parallel here to what happened when Google disastrously tried to integrate YT comments with G+ threads

Difference here being that what's bridged is the fediverse (#ActivityPub) and the ATmosphere (#ATproto), which are protocol-defined networks, not monolithic platforms. There is already a need to address different kinds of UX within each network. So bridging them doesn't introduce new UX problems to either.

So uh, is anyone looking to hire a developer with an uncomfortable amount of knowledge about #atproto and #activitypub, experience building from scratch and running a social network (@ludumdare.com), hacking on GPU drivers/network protocols/the Linux kernel, plus a couple decades as a pro gamedev?

Just finished listening to the newest episode of Decoder podcast (@2123) containing a pretty hard hitting 1 hour interview of Matt Mullenweg (@photomatt) by Nilay Patel (@reckless1280) where they talked about #Beeper, @tumblr, #ActivityPub vs #ATProto and or course the latest in WordPress (drama), regardless of what you think of Matt it was an interesting listen.
