I've one more: I just figured out that `goat publish` also works on single files. So for consistency the publish command could be `goat lex publish ./lexicons/com.example.myapp.record.json`.
I prefer your guide over atproto.com/guides/publi.... Yours is easier when you only want to publish a single schema, the official one doesn't even mention that you can just name the file with dots and not having a deeply nested directory structure.
@kanadgupta.com Thanks for the fix at github.com/bluesky-soci.... I was running into this yesterday and was about to fix it right now, but then I luckily found that it's already fixed.
@lexicon.garden I couldn't find any repo powering the site, hence posting feedback here. In the "Adding Lexicons" guide in the "Creating DNS Entries" section, it talks about the DID, but not how to get it. I would mention that you can get it via `goat resolve <your-account-name>`.
You can't write a compelling promotion packet about the thing you didn't build. And that's the whole problem.

"The future of AI" by Lucija Gregov is really a good philosophical read on where AI stands and where we are heading lucijagregov.com/2026/02/26/t...
I would expand it to IPLD (disclaimer: that's what I've been working on)
This info just came over the (highly recommended) #geohumanities mailing list: The working papers from the very productive #OpenMapsMeeting hosted in 2024 by @TUDelftLibrary at the National Archives in The Hague is online. Documenting innovative work with #historical #maps using #IIIF Hopefully [β¦]
Sadly true, though some parts still live on and get a revival due to ATProto.

New blogpost about atproto
It's not federation, it's not a p2p mesh. It's a secret third thing: practical.

Is there any place to watch the progress of this/chance to chime in in case further discussion is needed. I really want to see that happen :)
New blog post is up! When we talk about controlled data on ATProtocol, we focus on users and who they grant access to. But there's always a third party: the applications that store, relay, and render the data.
STAC reports the file type for the reflectance as Zarr v2 "application/vnd+zarr; version=2; profile=multiscales" api.explorer.eopf.copernicus.eu/stac/collect... If there's a better place to report this, let me know.
7 months ago ESA asked: can the open-source ecosystem handle Sentinel Zarr? π°οΈπΊοΈ
We pushed early GeoZarr conventions with:
β GDAL
β OpenLayers
β TiTiler/rasterio
β STAC
β rioxarray
No proprietary format. No lock-in. Just interoperability.

Oh cool! It's good to see that you are using sharding and single files. Will the sample service be like that? π€
Are here any plans to move to Zarr v3? I see benefits in using large files (sharding) for data distribution as well as for verifiability/integrity checks.

To all my #FOSS4G friends on the ActivityPub side of things. It would be great if you could bridge your account, so that folks like me on the ATProto side can follow you. For information on how to do it, see fed.brid.gy/docs#bluesky...
