Another platform where Black folks and the sauce they bring are exploited, until they yet again become digital refugees fleeing from harassment and violence because of the lack of access to safety tools that prioritize them. Black folks deserve a culture of digital safety. It’s time for change.

Oh this is exciting and backed by a murderer’s row of atproto knowers. Makes perfect sense for science to be embracing the protocol like this.

I think what’s driving a lot of the (over?) reaction is the last two huge media shifts — the internet and social/mobile media — were kinda treated as nothingburgers (“who cares if you’re eating a sandwich?”) and we ended up with fascism. Now the same people are now in charge of AI.

Hollywood, which tech has long been obsessed with overtaking, might be an even better model just in terms of scope and scale. Without SAG-AFTRA of course.

It's a bitter asymmetry folks who are actively engaged in their own humanity are the ones seen as as cultists and the ones who just go with the flow of entrenched power are the normies. Been bumming me out *a lot* lately, though it's not really all that different than any other time in human history

This is big for not only ATProto but tbh any DID:PLC consumers out there (one could do ActivityPub with DID:PLC work). Also shout out to fellow Interacter @filippo.abyssdomain.expert for being a part of this!

This is huge news, especially for all the "Bluesky isn't really decentralized" folks. Having the PLC Org as wholly independent is a big, important step forward. And great to see that Filippo is part of it...

Oh man this is fun (also Bluesky totally appreciates this many photos *and* you don't have to hide links in your posts unlike literally every other social network because we'd never suppress links)

Hello World from the PLC organization (plcred.org)! The org was soft-announced back in March at AtmosphereConf. We've been working through logistics step by step and now have a public web presence we can point to.

"We have built a plugin registry that is secure, but not controlled by a central authority. To do this we built it on top of AT Protocol (atproto) [...] We provide a default plugin store, but anybody else can create one that is compatible and can provide all the plugins in the network" Hell yeah 🌀🔥

Huge congratulations to the EmDash team, what an incredible and ambitious project. The plugin registry is built on atproto, which will keep it locked open, and it's Atmospheric with @standard.site built-in to the default plugins.

Yoooo! Congratulations!!! "The registry is built on AT Protocol (atproto), a decentralized network protocol that powers Bluesky and a growing ecosystem of applications."

I loved Jaz’s earlier version and this new one is even better. This is the kind of thing that’s literally impossible to build on other social platforms, not for any technical reason but because they choose to keep their platforms locked.

apropos of nothing, @emdashcms.com has native support for atproto, its plug-in marketplace is atproto-powered and any plugins that have been registered in time for EmDash v1.0 will get a lot of eyeballs on it. any atmospheric widget will do the trick. discourse.atmosphere.community/t/emdash-as-...
