It's release week at the house, and here's our next announcement: Mise en Mode, the emerging web standard! AT Protocol is a federated model for building social media apps like Bluesky. We want folks in the Atmosphere to adopt for supporting a visitor's own look over their own. standard.mode.place

On March 29th, we held an in-person meeting to check in with the community and discuss potential updates to the standard.site spec. A huge thank you to @cozylittle.house for putting together a detailed summary of everything we discussed. leaflet.pub/p/did:plc:kydzcmnywraao2srchq…

has anyone done an explainer on why standard.site is cool? I can usually see the promise in new developments here and I'm sure I'm missing something but I'm just not getting it

Would you look at that. We’ve partnered with @leaflet.pub, @pckt.blog , and @offprint.app to bring you a Summer of @standard.site. Sign up for any annual paid plan, get 25% off bsky.social/about/blog/06-22-2026-summer-…

Web publishing is facing its next challenge: a new iteration of centralizing platforms. BUT there is also a new wave of open protocols+standards to gain independence. Next month in NYC let's discuss how we can sail into this next platform shift as captains. #ProtocolsForPublishers pfp.unternet.co

I found a really great article around web standards "Every feature begins life as a non-standard proposal, often shipped. This is not a bug" that I shared with @blaine.bsky.social last September. Thread in the forum discourse.atprotocol.community/t/web-standards-and-the-fall-…

I *love* everything about this, just read those principles, it’s like, the best of the best standards development knowledge condensed beautifully: howethomas.github.io/ietf-hackathon-125/

I want organizers to be as excited as I am about the phase shift happening on the web right now. If we nerds can help the organizers see what we're seeing, which is the potential for a systemic overhaul of the web as we know it, the organizers will understand what they can ask us to build for them.

the general bsky userbase being a lil dismissive of the standard.site integration is a reminder that this whole atproto atmosphere ecosystem is a long game. not everyone will be on board, and that's ok! we'll be ready to welcome people into a decentralized social future as big social fades away :)
