This... seems very interesting

#Bluesky is "...standardizing parts of #ATProtocol in an effort to establish long-term governance for the protocol."

"to establish long-term governance for the protocol"

Also see at #Github:

"Add patent pledge link to README (# 4246)"

"Bluesky Social PBC has committed to a software patent non-aggression pledge. For details see [the original announcement] (https://bsky.social/about/blog/10-01-2025-patent-pledge)."

Here: https://github.com/bluesky-social/atproto/commit/d239f0bcf5e7ed391c8ced32e13aaa4c1324a757

All that said, not sure exactly what it *means* long-term, but it is... interesting

A few questions:

This is very similar to #nostr what is the difference?

Without a user facing front end, it's just tech, and too complex tech at that.

What is the use case as media is public, how would this bridge to #AP and #At etc?

How are external flows of news brought in (almost all news will be reported outside the native network?)

Can it run as a phone app?
