back in 2012, @kissane.myatproto.social invited me to write an article for (the ostensibly now-defunct) Contents Magazine: doriantaylor.com/no-longer-no-sense-of-an-endi… i haven't looked at it in a while; it's kind of a clumsy article actually but (because?) it considers two tangentially-related concerns…

Medium's Evan Williams To Publishers: Your Website Is Toast
Photo: Kirsty Wigglesworth/AP Websites are in about the same place as dinosaurs were at the tail end of the Cretaceous Period 65 million years ago. Which is to say, about to go extinct. So says Evan Williams, a confounder of Twitter and Blogger and now CEO of Medium, the publishing platform he [...]

some of the editing I've been doing for @wikipedia.org got covered by in Everything in Moderation, a newsletter by @benwhitelaw.bsky.social! There is still a lot to do, and if there's one thing wiki and atproto have taught me: WE CAN JUST DO THINGS! everythinginmoderation.co/trust-safety-wikipedia-thon/
Why T&S needs a Wikipedia-thon
www.everythinginmoderation.co@hipstersmoothie.com it'd be awesome if Standard Reader showed article sources more prominently. i know there's already a subtle link, but even a "published on pckt.blog" or similar would help. it would help give atproto publishing platforms more exposure and help attract new writers.
Doing some investigation into news data on atproto via @sill.social's appview. The most popular news orgs that don't have an account tied to their domain are: ABC, BBC, CBC. Broadcasting companies hate atproto, you heard it here first.
Okay I had to do it: I'm spinning off my blog posts about ATProto and the importance of decentralized social media into its own blog: What The Function!? Where we answer "WTF is this" and "WTF does it matter" Subscribe to WTF today! wtf.samclemente.me/whats-the-function-of-what-th…
What's The Function of What The Function!?
wtf.samclemente.meWrote about messing around with @atproto.com and working on automatic syncing of content to @standard.site of my blog (and any blog) Bonus: it's open source and written in Elixir. Work in progress! jola.dev/posts/automatically-syncing-y…

jola.devFinally had some time (to attempt) to catch up on reading the articles published on Offprint. Wanted to share a few that were fun reads First article is by @bunniesin.space. They’re exploring the world of atproto and reading their thoughts and confusion on @mu.social’s lex extension was a good read
Some thoughts on extending lexicons
amybunny.offprint.apprhosf.leaflet.pub/3mqsznoy55k2s/ Such an interesting post by @tessa.germnetwork.com! I feel like I have a different perspective on the social network vs. social media terms having lived through that era, but I definitely think about this distinction a lot too!
