some thoughts on atproto as a post-app paradigm

Every lexicon, every "app" on ATProto is a "yes and" waiting for your contribution to the vision. We're all first party developers.

I saw requests for a new way to find atproto alternatives, so I made alternativeproto.net - an atproto spin on AlternativeTo. It itself is on atproto, so you can log in and make submissions, votes, and reviews that are stored on your PDS. Give it a try and go easy, it's my first public atproto app.

Want to distribute compute to members of your organization in an ATProto native way? Check out socialweb.computer!

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

The vector for new signups of atproto accounts is apps. Adoption is unlikely to come through just one app. A “drive” app would actually make sense and I have some ideas there but I think it will be varied. A lot of different apps can get big - from recipes to events to whatever.

reminder that the inaugural ATP (atproto) working group meeting will be taking place soon! we are scheduled for the Thursday of #IETF126. you can register and participate remotely. if you have a topic you want to discuss, reply to the chairs on the mailing list; this is roughly final call
