haven't felt this energized in a while 🔋 We're building a proof-of-concept E2EE library & demo on AT Protocol, using BeeKEM for DCGKA. There's a long road between a PoC and a foundation we can all depend on, but every journey has a first step🐾 bsky.app/profile/boscolo.co/post/3m52h… bsky.app/profile/expede.wtf/post/3mraq…

With #AT-SMS we are committed to building group messaging support on top of the most promising decentralized continuous group key agreement (DCGKA). No candidates yet, tho. I think a few more implementations are needed to make the IETF discussions fruitful. bsky.app/profile/boscolo.co/post/3lwuh…

Well, a few weeks ago I suggested @eurosky.social @mu.social to create a list of MU’s special features— compared to Bsky app’s (link): @renderg.host any update pls? 🙂
Progress on Auth Scopes Implementation (August 2025) · bluesky-social atproto · Discussion #4118
Since our last update on Auth Scopes, the Bluesky team has been hard at work adding support to our reference PDS implementation. Aspects of this work are starting to roll out in the production netw...
You can sign up for @inspo.land with your bluesky account! under the hood it creates a new private PDS using bsky for auth still a bit finicky sometimes, so lmk if you run into any issues!
When @bsky.app pulls this kind of crap often, whilst also expecting the community to do the heavy-lifting in actually convincing people to try out the AT Protocol... it's really difficult to feel hopeful about the future of Bluesky and its constituents. I imagine many agree with this stance.
Rude1 Haunted Badness. ⁂
Bluesky’s statement deriding Threads users as “guinea pigs” is not representative of Blacksky Algorithms, the atproto ecosystem or the open social web more broadly. Communities form around communication networks. And communities should never be trolled for whatever tool helps them find each other.
