Hello atproto builders — I’m a long time lurker and first time forum poster. I met some of you at Atmosphere conf in March, but for the most part have been thinking and talking about how I might get involved and support what’s happening here, rather than diving in. It’s been deeply heartening over the last couple years to see this community emerge and all the work so many of you have put in to make Atmosphere conf and all the other great atproto meetups and conferences—and community contribution...
As a community I think we've focus of "what is an atmosphere account?" too much and "what can I do with it?" too little To help with that I've built ATStore, our App Store: - Browse all the Atmosphere Apps - Explore each App's ecosystem - Leave reviews and feedback - Star your favorites

atstore.fyithe terminology for the atmosphere has to be able to elicit the response "oh that's bluesky i think?" before it can get any other type of response out of the general public. right now we don't have anything that does

www.youtube.comin a community like ours, i think it’s tacky to say “stop using [Atmosphere app] and use [other Atmosphere app] instead” when i released @aturi.to i didn’t tell people to stop using @pds.ls or @atproto.at with @anisota.net, you won’t find me saying “ditch bluesky, mu, blacksky, etc”
I think the Atmosphere needs to start talking about renewables given all the AI-related emissions going into the... Atmosphere. I recently purchased the domain atproto.solar. And I'll offer that domain to anyone who's able to run a PDS that operates 100% on solar/renewable energy. Let's chat.
“In the atproto community, apps built on the protocol are called ‘Atmospheric.’ So: my website is now Atmospheric, and this post is about what that actually means.” @disnetdev.com said the thing! disnetdev.com/blog/an-atmospheric-website

we haven't talked much about this publicly, but might as well rip the band aid: "atmosphere" is a generic word and there is no trademark held by anybody in the context of atproto, and would probably be hard to obtain or disputed in any domain. I think that is good, that word should be free
Our community has gathered around the concept of Atmosphere. There’s work to do in explaining, culture building, and the concrete task of rallying around a brand / logo, especially around login.

For anyone that has come to a meetup, event, or conference - it’s not faceless. As a community, our goal is to imbue the Atmosphere with feelings and alignment. Designing a logo and brand that grows to mean that is something we need to do together. No one company can carry our flag.
