I’ve been helping build the new 40verse app. We’re thinking about culture and live events on the Atmosphere. How might we build social experiences around events that benefit audiences and organizers alike? Come check it out next week!

I've been working diligently on my fantasy sports on atproto prototype, and as soon as the spaces alpha launched, everything really fell into place. Instead of working around the fundamental tension of a fully public network, I could easily match user expectations of a fantasy league.

Tyler Fisher @tylerjfisher.com · 27/08/2026
Paul's post sings the praises of the public atproto we as early adopters have come to love. Daniel's post demonstrates that spaces cut that access off as a fundamental tenet. I think it's great that we have both! I am curious if the public atproto dies off pretty quickly though.

Tyler Fisher @tylerjfisher.com · 27/08/2026
Fascinating that @pfrazee.com and @dholms.at published these two blogs back to back. I think they express some of tension we're all going to have to work out when spaces fully launch. Paul: pfrazee.leaflet.pub/3mu3p2smmis22 Daniel: dholms.leaflet.pub/3mu3p3ldwrc26

I know it's not a big deal but since some people pay for Sill+ I think the distinction is important.

Sorta! Sill's in a US LLC (I started it before I moved here), so I asked them to remove it so as to not confuse anyone.

Actually most of what I pull these days is images from posts, using the `feed_thumbnail` version. Link card images tend to be pulled directly from the HTML metadata of the original.

I would point to @tangled.org as a solid example of how to bifurcate. Tangled put the *social features of collaborative git* on protocol, but not git commits. For fantasy, I think you could put the social aspects: the league, the draft, the teams, etc., on protocol, without going full sports data.
110
Tyler Fisher @tylerjfisher.com · 12/08/2026
Hadn't seen it, thanks for sending! I think it's helpful to think about what makes sense on protocol and what doesn't. I don't think we're (yet) in a world where box scores on protocol make much sense. (What PDS does a box score live in, if it's not @nba.com?)

i love the bike-first infrastructure of the netherlands. it's probably my favorite thing about living here. but admittedly, since i moved into a new apartment more centrally located a couple months ago, i almost never cycle. walk > public transit > bike >>>>>>>> drive, for me.

i dislike this beyond being factually incorrect, it is also missing the core problem with Big Tech Algorithms: it is a matter about who controls attention, not the algorithm itself /1
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.
