ICYMI, we launched an updated version of Surf with easier navigation. Build your own topical feeds including posts from @Mastodon, Bluesky and Threads, plus RSS, YouTube, podcasts and Flipboard Magazines. Need inspiration? Head to the Surf Shop where you can explore feeds on everything from news and politics to book reviews, record collecting and Vectrex. You decide how your feed looks, what's in it, and what's excluded.

I also want to see #activitypub get some of the primitives that #atproto has such as decentralized identifiers (except for real), personal data stores, content addresses, etc. I want to see both protocols cross-pollinate with each other's strengths. And perhaps share infrastructure like identities.

New: ATmosphere Report 145, with collections of links to interesting #atproto stuff for November

This time, all the links are on-protocol, as a Semble.so collection, with a custom page that also shows you comments on Leaflet and posts on Bluesky

In a wide-ranging interview with @Gargron, creator of the decentralized social network @Mastodon, Rochko shared why Threads federation fell flat, why #ActivityPub and #ATProto will likely never merge, and what it will take to grow the #Fediverse.

Are there any combination #ActivityPub servers and #ATProto PDSs?
So one can post on both networks simultaneously?

Are there any alternate #ATProto / #BlueSky PDSs where one can make an account without giving up one's email address?

I want a new flagship #atproto app that isn't a Twitter clone on the surface. As much as I loved Twitter, I see what the result has been societally and want to move forward. Bluesky is almost a skeumorphic interface on top of atproto and I can't wait to see what's truly possible with this platform.
