Now in the Colibri spaces alpha: multi-activity and game activities! We've been developing a lexicon for game activity sharing in the ATProto Games WG and it's slowly getting ready. You can use sync.atplay.games to link your Steam and Discord, then head to spaces.colibri.social/app to try it out!
A Colibri profile with two different activities at the same time: listening to teal.fm and playing a video game

I've been on an AT Protocol podcast binge and I know tons of people hate it here and hate the devs and think the focus should be building something that's just like Twitter but tuned to the hater's particular tastes, but, man, what's getting built has me optimistic about the future of the internet.

People can be both marginalized and wrong. People can be without power, and also be assholes. People can be oppressed, and be cruel. People can be discriminated against, and they can be incorrect sometimes. This is because people are human beings first, not categories. And humans are messy.

it’s pretty wild that we as a society of have just completely normalized (and at times encouraged) people to act insanely rude and inappropriate to complete strangers online, in ways they wouldn’t in real life, to the point that a lot of pro-social behavior has is even stigmatized on social media

I was reading an author recently talking about how we don't appreciate the way that email isn't siloed. That is, you don't have to be in gmail to talk to someone else in gmail. The norm is so powerful, it'd be unthinkable to change it. All email is interoperable. Social media could've been this way.

Foregrounding this question is an obviously a good thing—and something probably still largely absent from everyday consumer consciousness. Makes me optimistic that one byproduct of ATProto’s open architecture adoption might be a rise in digital literacy amongst the public at large. A dude can hope 🙏

Had a fun time at the Dublin (Ohio) Irish Festival last weekend. Seeing an Irish wolfhound in person was unreal! It was also nice volunteering for something non-political. Although... Quite a few people were asking about their chances for getting Irish citizenship bc they wanna leave the US 😭 Mood.

Said something interesting to a friend today when they asked about different open social web protocols. It might be a little bit controversial, but: I think that ActivityPub is decentralized in principle, whereas AT Protocol is decentralized in practice. 🧵

Would love for @bsky.app to adopt a feature like this, where people can optionally add a section to their profiles that allows users to see their publications and subscriptions. Also the ability to add a newsletter subscription button in bio - similar to how @standard.site blogs show up in posts.

Last night I was at a bookstore in the village and there was a woman who was purchasing "Ulysses." While scanning the shelves, I spotted "Dubliners." "Here's another one by James Joyce," I said, handing it to her. She might unknowingly embark into the world of Joyce studies after this! 😅

Other theories to explain the many snails in combat that appear in medieval manuscripts range from the straightforward fight of gardeners against snails to a commentary on female sexuality. The idea that the monks just enjoyed painting snails has also been suggested. 1/2
