Big day! @jay.bsky.team will remain deeply involved as CIO and I'm personally excited she's dedicating more time on the future of atproto.

I'm also very pleased that @toni.bsky.team is joining us as the interim CEO. He seems like a thoughtful, experienced person who cares about the open internet.

A New Chapter for Bluesky - Bluesky After several intense and incredible years building Bluesky from the ground up, I've decided to step back as CEO and transition to a new role as Bluesky's Chief Innovation Officer.

Some personal news: I’m transitioning from CEO to a new role as Bluesky’s Chief Innovation Officer! I’m excited to welcome @toni.bsky.team as our interim CEO.

Ok, ready 🌟 pulsar.feeds.blue :)

(I've temporarily hidden atproto.africa because I got some weird numbers from it right now, will investigate)

I have a few more ideas for improvements, but I think it should be useful already. #atproto

Let me know if I should add/update anything.

announcing our €3,8M seed round and more on what's next

today, we're announcing our €3,8M ($4.5M) seed financing round, led by byFounders with participation from Bain Capital Crypto, Antler, Thomas Dohmke (former CEO of GitHub), Avery Pennarun (CEO of Tailscale) among other incredible angels.

awesome, thanks for checking!

i was able to manually index the goal data in dev instance and pointed goals.garden to that now. could you please check if you are able to see them ? (might need some hard refresh in browser if you still don't see it working)

looks like OVH seems to be having a downtime in that region
status.us.ovhcloud.com
its backend is hosted there.

will check if I can repoint it to my dev instance. sorry about that!

From Attention to Intention - The Open Garden Exploring business models for atproto and the open social web

Business models in the atmosphere?!?!

Let's talk about how atproto and standard.site can move social media away from enshittifying, attention-based business models towards intent-based business models that better align revenues with openness and interoperability.

It's been almost one full fortnight since our last one, we're doing office hours again this Friday. And we're bringing special guests to talk all about building on atproto.

baileytownsend.dev/label-watcher PDS Admin tool make it easier to moderate your PDS with labels

The atmosphere has some great labelers that do an amazing job of moderating. But as PDS admins, we do not have a great solution to use these amazing resources. So I created label-watcher. It subscribes to multiple labelers and notifies you if a user on your PDS gets labeled by a watched label.

List of speakers Plus a new conference website and remote tickets

After notifying all our CFP submitters, we now have a full list of speakers and talks!

the new HA config is live. slingshot now has two big host instances, with passive (effective!) DNS load balancing/fallback.

zero-downtime deploy worked smoothly to get the primary instance updated today!

PLC Read Replicas - AT Protocol Introducing a self-hostable did:plc read-replica service

We've released a self-hostable reference implementation of a PLC read-replica service to make the Atmosphere ever more decentralized. @retr0.id has details on what this all means.

atproto.com/blog/plc-rep...

awesome!

haha. ideally, it should be a ifthisthen.at feature. but i'm exploring some options on my side as well on how best to do it.

I'll check in the atproto discord to see if bailey/fig has any insights on the correct way to do these.

even when I manually updated your DID's upstream status as active in relay db, it still was still dropping all your events
(I guess, it's because of its cache). a restart fixed it though.
But, I'm not sure if its the right way to resolve it.

Btw, I just meant "any" activity from the repo. It seems like the relays were dropping ALL the events from your DID.
And I'm guessing it's because of the sequence of activities wrt to your pds move on Jan 25/26 and these relays didn't get any account activate event (for some reason).

thanks Jay. I think it should be fixed now.
But the older goals / completions will not be there.

can you try creating a new goal from the website and see if it works for you now?

I should probably work on a "re-sync" utility that should help backfill for these kind of situations.

The only important protocol is kindness

thanks!! sure yeah, maybe we can have those as some goal presets in future.

We've been hard at work on a new website with new guides, better docs, more translations, even our very own blog. We think it looks pretty sharp, too. It's now easier than ever to just build things with AT Protocol.

atproto.com

anyway, I updated the db manually in one of the test relays. just waiting for some event from your repo to see if that marks it as active now. if it works, ill do the same on all the actual ones.

json response of repo status from firehose.network relay

yeah, this app uses firehose.network relay and looks like your account is set a deactivated in there. I'm guessing its sometime during the pds move that it didn't get the account activate event(?)
