This is a good example of the permissionless innovation happening in the #Atmosphere: create an initial LinkedIn-style site you can access via your existing Bluesky/Blacksky/Eurosky/etc. account, then add more and more features leveraging your existing personal data in the Atmosphere and beyond.

How to beat LinkedIn: The Game
A strategy guide for using a semi-pointless social network in all the wrong ways.
Nobody knows how the whole system works
One of the surprising (at least to me) consequences of the fall of Twitter is the rise of LinkedIn as a social media site. I saw some interesting posts I wanted to call attention to: First, Simon W…

Note: This was originally published as a LinkedIn post on November 11, 2025. I need to make a painful confession: somehow, LinkedIn has become an important social network to me. This isn’t necessarily due to LinkedIn’s sparkling competence, of course. To the contrary, LinkedIn is the Gerald Ford of social networks: the normal one that was left standing as the Richard Nixons and the Spiro Agnews of social media imploded around them. As with Gerald Ford, with LinkedIn we know that we’re getting something a bit clumsy and boring, but (as with post-Watergate America!), we’re also getting something that isn’t totally crooked — and that’s actually a bit of a relief.
Universal profiles on the open social web
One of the discussions we had during the community day ahead of Eurosky was about this notion of interchangeable user profiles in the Atmosphere / Open Social Web. @laurenshof.online even recorded the entire conversation so maybe there’s a transcript I could clean up for us? Anyhow, here’s the gist of it. Deferred profile Right now on roomy.space if you sign up with your existing Bluesky account, we will defer to that Bluesky profile for your profile in Roomy as well, essentially recognizing t...
Bluesky and the AT Protocol: Usable Decentralized Social Media
Bluesky is a new social network built upon the AT Protocol, a decentralized foundation for public social media. It was launched in private beta in February 2023, and has grown to over 10 million registered users by October 2024. In this paper we introduce the architecture of Bluesky and the AT Protocol, and explain how the technical design of Bluesky is informed by our goals: to enable decentralization by having multiple interoperable providers for every part of the system; to make it easy for users to switch providers; to give users agency over the content they see; and to provide a simple user experience that does not burden users with complexity arising from the system's decentralized nature. The system's openness allows anybody to contribute to content moderation and community management, and we invite the research community to use Bluesky as a dataset and testing ground for new approaches in social media moderation.

How Blacksky grew to millions of users without spending a dollar
I know I’ve said this before and recently, but I’m over the skeuomorphic UX of Bluesky that makes it look and feel like a 20 year old social media app. I’m ready for new experiences for this kind of media/data. This information architecture is played out. Let’s try some new ideas with other clients.
A new European microblogging app? Used to be the case that meant starting all over again. Not this time: I just logged in with the same @eurosky.social account I use for @bsky.app and it works. Starting to see the potential of decentralised socials.

Muve to the beat. Muve the conversation. Muve mountains. Today @eurosky.social announces mu.social, a new microblogging app to experiment with the future of social! 🪩💖
The cool folks from the Eurosky team just brought you a new site: eurosky.tech, portal to the Atmosphere. I'd say it's the crispest explanation so far of what the Atmosphere brings: 1. one account 2. that works with a bunch of apps, and 3. your data from all apps is yours, portable, interoperable.
