I’ll take a look at it, it’s probably an issue on our end.

Thanks for letting me know, I’ll see if I can fix it but it might be a little while.

It all depends on money and time, if I had both I’d fix it up and make it really good. But I spent all my money and time on Skylight already and I don’t know when or if I’ll have more.

I’m here, not much I can do about it sadly. I imagine that it’s frustrating for you all, I feel the same way.

Trying to design something like a PDS but for work. Just those 3 days of Fable may have been enough to push it over the hump.

I wish I could put time in to Skylight but I got bills to pay :( I’ll see if I can fix login though we want to keep the app online for now and we can hopefully improve it later

It’s a lateral move for sure which is why they didn’t name it 5.0 despite being different under the hood.

A meme using a photo of an older man at a podcast microphone wearing headphones, looking confused. The text reads "Shopify?" at the top and "The Blacksky Dev Tools Company?" at the bottom, implying bewilderment at an unexpected rebranding or association.

What if we could do deep synchronous collaborative work and then the AI does background work on some of the details it’s suited for? IMO the uniformity of the workflow where we’re always in the way of everything inhibits being intentional about the pieces that really matter

Reed Harmeyer @reedharmeyer.bsky.social · 30/04/2026
I feel like I’ve expressed similar sentiments on this as Karpathy has and, at least for me, I don’t think it’s at odds with your viewpoint. Right now we’re in the loop on everything and so _relatively_ the sweet spot is “getting out of the way” IMO this can lead to more craftsmanship not less

The idea was to give displaced TikTokers a life raft. The best we could think of was trying to blend TikTok-like features with Bluesky’s communities. I know people on Bluesky wanted us to be TikTok but people on TikTok needed Bluesky so that’s what we tried to make for them :)

Sure but I also feel like Bluesky is a great place in general to share ideas. There are so many great people building here, we’re just so one of many!

For sure that’s often how they are used but I think there is an additional degree of idiosyncratic behavior it allows. There is a line where it goes from being content-first to commentary-first. A subreddit is like a single comment section with multiple posts. Cross-posting is a primary movement.

Reed Harmeyer @reedharmeyer.bsky.social · 05/04/2026
I couldn’t agree more about the need for a communities feature. Even Threads has one and IMO it’s a major reason they did so well in 2025. They aren’t mutually exclusive with feeds or hashtags, they are a fundamentally different primitive.

Yes but you should probably read Paul Graham too if you’re going to make a software company. All of my mistakes have been made while I was ignoring some piece of advice he gave.

1000% we under appreciate how much proprietary AI/ML have been working for these big companies. Intelligent systems have been their monopoly and now it’s a near commodity.
031
Reed Harmeyer @reedharmeyer.bsky.social · 23/03/2026
Exactly! The web was what made it good. Same thing will be true if someone gets PMF here it will be because of atproto not in spite of it.

When did Bluesky build a browser?
110
Reed Harmeyer @reedharmeyer.bsky.social · 23/03/2026
Again pushing past semantics. If someone came up to the both of us and said they were building an “atproto browser” we’d have two different reactions. You’d dislike the idea. I’d like the idea. That difference of opinion is what’s interesting

Reed Harmeyer @reedharmeyer.bsky.social · 23/03/2026
I don’t think that’s the right metric to use — their website copy wasn’t their top of funnel. They don’t have to tell you they’re a website you’re already on their website. There was no ambiguity that the online part was what made them different. Their slogan was “the world’s largest bookstore”
110
Reed Harmeyer @reedharmeyer.bsky.social · 23/03/2026
“Atproto should not be part of the byline of your product” This is what we’re debating, right? I think the web was part of the byline for many of these companies — “online bookstore” comes to mind. I bet if someone finds PMF atproto will be that fundamental to their product offering.
110
Reed Harmeyer @reedharmeyer.bsky.social · 22/03/2026
Counter argument: if atproto is just an implementation detail then you aren’t making a viable product. Historically, people knew they were using new tech. It was obvious because the product was unprecedented. People learned to use the internet just to get access to the products.
