Is it a souped-up Bluesky client? Is it an ecosystem? Is it pleasingly purple? Yes. All of those and more. ๐ŸŒ web app: smol.life by @smol.farm

Sorry for the delayed response, will have a fix out for this soon. The way it calculates what index tabs are supposed to be at was broken.

While the main ProtoPro app is still a ways away, here's something you can use on Bluesky now that will have special functionality later!

Get more from smol farm on Patreon indie creative studio

We just setup a Patreon! We always want to provide a lot for free, e.g. @skyrdle.com, that has no catches or ads.

However, setting up ongoing revenue to support our efforts is important.

For now, we offer one tier: the $5/mo. egg tier

The benefits will expand with time!

Building on ATProto ATProto holds a lot of promise for breaking the hold corporations have on our social data.

Pushing an update to smol life that should be live in the next 15 minutes.

1) PayPal support has been added to the tip jar system, including on the tipjar.smol.life pages

2) If the user has tip jar methods setup, a "Send Tip" option now appears in the menu on their profile

Integrating this sort of info in other places is key, but I like the approach of having basic UIs at the subdomains that match the feature

life.smol.resume data => view easily on resume.smol.life
life.smol.tipJar => view easily on tipjar.smol.life

Alright, check this out. These settings are now available in @smol.life. They're stored in "life.smol.tipJar" on your PDS.

And then you can go to tipjar.smol.life/ens0.me to get a nice (even if still fairly basic) UI to show this data.

Sorry for the slightly delayed response, we'll look into this soon. The UI code should be identical to the regular client, but there may be some sort of API call failing or something.

This subdomain will show anyone's public resume data on ATProto, but several people have expressed interest in embedding this info on their own site.

Just gotta make an API call like this with your DID instead (and a custom PDS URL if applicable)
bsky.social/xrpc/com.atp...

Why is the smol life logo an airship?

Because an airship makes it easier to explore the skies!

(And also because @ens0.me is a huge Final Fantasy nerd.)

Alright, this is still very beta and basic, but you can see my resume here:
resume.smol.life/ens0.me

This is pulling data from the "life.smol.resume" PDS repo.

The main @smol.life app now also has a place to edit this data under settings.

We're making it so that you can edit your Linkat.blue data directly from within smol life. Just look for the new "Other Protocol Data" section in Settings.

Should be live in the next 15 minutes!

You can now "install" apps or games in smol life. All this does is create a PDS record at:

life.smol.installed

However, that then signals to the client that you care about that AT Proto app and want to be able to access it easily!

A little rough still, but @smol.life will now show your @linkat.blue links if you have them
