Whey‽

thanks for reviewing my site

hello test

Screenshot of the quoted post "got it wrong 1. deactivate acc on old pds 2. goat account plc recommended 3. update did doc with new key and pds 4. activate acc on new pds"

the 2nd time i migrated it i used goat, bsky.app/profile/did:... (sharing this as a screenshot since this post only exists on the appview and not my pds for an unrelated issue)

i used atp airport and then got confused at the fact that i never received the plc token and then realized i was migrating a did web so the atp airport system never finished, as i just changed the did.json manually, deactivated the old and activated the new accs manually

though iirc it doesnt show apps where its access token is not yet refreshed but once you open the app it refreshes and youre still logged in and only then itll show up in that page

mines at pds-nb.whey.party/account

theres {pds}/account(s? idk)

but it does rely on an mini-appview of sorts (and its authoritative because it decides the final poll state at expiry, which is hard to backfill deterministically), and their appview is understandably CORS restricted to keep costs low so you will need to make your own appview to use it

if you want to implement polls right now id recommend implementing tokimeki polls just because it already exists, and it is widely used by tokimeki users

hi can we like discuss on a better poll spec cuz im treating current red dwarf polls as a proof of concept of adding new features to bsky and less of actually adding polls. besides, tokimeki had public polls before me, and like my actual serious idea for private polls havent materialized yet

How small can ATproto get, really? - Unfolding Diagrams Does an independent Bluesky stack really cost thousands?

Great read on what it means to run different kinds of ATProto services, that along the way does a good job of explaining that we don’t run instances here.

Pretty much. For RD the source of the counts is the constellation instance and iirc it isnt backfilled

at risk of a bunch of people saying “well actually you should have done it this way”, here’s a lil write up on adding trending topics to bluesky

The votes themselves are safe, the vote record strongrefs to the sidecar that defines the polls. But bsky likes arent, they only target the bsky post and not the poll record

The opengraph image generation for polls is my attempt at graceful degradation but even that has its limits. The image is not easily machine readable / verifiable to be the same content as the poll itself.

And the problem is that you cant fit all of the extra data inside of the bsky fallback post. Even if you stuffed it in a custom field, then its still the same problem because the extra data wont ever be shown to users

More on sidecars. Its more of a problem about how which post variant that you liked/interacted matters somewhat. A like to the original bsky post might differ in meaning compared to a like towards the enhanced post

The votes themselves are practically identical to likes. Each of the 4 possible options has its own collection for easier constellation queries

`app.reddwarf.poll.vote.a`
and so on

It lacks expiration and per-user option limits because those arent easily implementable using only constellation

Im still unsure about sidecars in this case because the enhanced post and the original post could diverge which could be bad

I played around with sidecar records and ended up with public polls as a test. The poll embed is defined in a sidecar record, and all votes point to that instead of the bsky post record

not sure if this is what youre looking for github.com/jazware/go-b...

hi sorry id love to help but im a bit confused, cuz as far as i understand from your request, all fresh feed variants (you can check it all in my profile) already does that. thanks

Introducing Tap: Repository Synchronization Made Simple | Bluesky Just about every app built on AT needs data from a repository at some point. For many use cases – feed generators, labelers, bots – streaming live data through a Relay or Jetstream works well. But som...

finally landed it!

Tap is your all-in-one sync tool for the Atmosphere: webhooks, backfill, filtering, signaling collections, no cbor/msts/signatures/cursors. this thing's got it all!

give it a go and let me know what you think & if you run into any issues

docs.bsky.app/blog/introdu...

all of the apps above lets you view the same content from the bluesky social network. if youre looking for other non-bluesky apps thats also powered by the same underlying technology, the ecosystem of apps is called the atmosphere. theres live streaming at stream.place, blogs at leaflet.pub and etc

witchsky.app is like a mod of the bluesky app with extra features like a color scheme selector and a lot of other experimental new features created by the community. there are other mods like deer.social catsky.social etc

theres also alternative apps like my own reddwarf.app (not fully featured)
