![Screenshot of the transcript from the linked interview between Nilay Patel and Toni Schneider. I've highlighted a segment.
Patel: I am very excited to talk to you. [begin highlight]What is happening with the open social web is maybe the most important thing happening for media. It does not get as much attention as AI, but there’s something very big happening on these interoperable social networks.[end highlight] I know that you are a believer in it in the same way that you believed in the web when you were the CEO of Automattic, which is the company that makes WordPress. So let’s just start at the very start. Describe what you think BlueSky is today and what you think the opportunities with these new kinds of networks are.
Toni Schneider: BlueSky today is really two things. There’s the BlueSky app, which is what a lot of people are familiar with. It’s a social network. We think it’s a better social network. It’s more human focused, doesn’t have ads. It doesn’t have algorithms. But more importantly, underneath BlueSky is an open protocol called AT Protocol. And BlueSky is only one of now over a thousand apps built on that protocol.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:lysqukqdu6hsrhet5v2brjgo/bafkreicojenssj3onyqbiyhsq7sxofx4nitpoz64qqdtkdjrh5q2n22o6e)
