Germ DM x ATProto is Now in Beta — Germ Network

Autonomous Communicator (AC) Protocol — Germ Network
“Hi, I’m Mark, here’s how you can send a message to me.” Our Autonomous Communicator (AC) Protocol empowers people to autonomously define identities which they can exchange with others to form relationships for communicating over end-to-end encrypted (E2EE) messaging channels.

if atproto adds E2EE messaging support, will be a bunch of questions: would it be integrated directly in client apps (like Bluesky), or be a separate client app experience? would you have per-app chats (for content sharing), or account-level (generic msgs w/ DIDs)? if the later, why not just Germ?
interesting thread about E2EE DMs when deeply embedded in a social app, versus not: content embed visibility, interaction leakage, message history, importance of defaults. (use germ and/or signal!)

I've seen a lot of chatter today about Instagram ending support for optional End-to-End Encrypted DMs. I helped to lead on cryptography and privacy for E2EE in Messenger and Instagram for many years, until I left around 10 months ago, so it's disappointing to see it being removed from Instagram.

I've built a slightly nicer ATProto Blob proxy that's performs proper validations on blob content and can handle moderation takedowns. The docs include a rough guide for configuring it, alongside steps to use with imgproxy and how to get a similar experience to bskys CDN.
