@tynanpurdy.com told me that "imgur on ATProto" would be really simple to build. So, here's my "hello world" of ATProto projects: a free image upload service called @pixl.pics. Try it out at pixl.pics. It's simple: view all of your images, and upload more.

Good news everyone! Introducing ATPhoto. I have cobbled together a media tab suiting my preferences at photo.mino.mobi First, download your repo. Second, shove it into duckDB. Third, parse images. To sort by most liked, I do have to call the appview, but for my 6k images it took about 90s.

I made meme-museum.at to explore making a complete (if simple) atproto app. Build a collection of meme images and post htem. I don't know if anyone needs it, but, as I tried to lay out in the post, I'll be happy if it helps demonstrate why I'm so excited about the potential of atproto.

ill add components to atproto-ui for this too :D, id love to embed some of these into my personal websites

Some more ideas about how I think to build an atproto app for artists from the needs I see in my community, and how I envision to grow this into a longer term project. I am curious about your feedback and who is interested to participate.

anyone have tips for building atproto stuff without a backend ? i’d like to make userinput better, currently it can be kinda slow. looking for best practices i may not have thought of.

Self-hosting your own atproto infrastructure is very much attainable and after going through the process, I wanted to do a little series of write ups on how to go about it. Starting with the PDS! jola.dev/posts/self-hosting-your-pds

share atproto architecture diagrams you've seen in the wild

The ATProto community built a ton of great features and products over the past year. For our next trick, let's mature them into products and businesses.
