This is probably one of the most important issues in terms of labor, tech, UX, etc that the Atmosphere needs to solve (decentralized moderation). I would invite people to pay attention to what the @blackskyweb.xyz team and its community are doing and take notes.

Groundings with my Siblings: Lessons Learned Building for Community
I had the privilege of discussing Blacksky and AT Protocol at several different college campuses, conference venues and other settings along with webinars and doing user research.

Moderation on Blacksky-Only Posts: A Community Proposal
blackskyweb.xyzThe Blacksky team is working on a zine. We grew to where we are through word of mouth and along existing networks. That’s this, but offline. It’s important to me that the bleeding edge tech we’re working on is made legible to as many people as possible. What do you think we should include?

At Protocol, Bluesky
nichoth.comI'll go against the discourse. 280 contributors to repo.npmx.dev in 100 days. We only used bluesky for social comms. We asked while welcoming folks, and most of them got involved after reading our bsky posts. Thanks for building and running bluesky. This network is a great place to do open source 💙

Wild to see that @npmx.dev was the fastest-growing emerging open source organization by number of contributors in Q1 2026 according to osscar.dev. What is even more interesting: it was the only non-AI tool in the top 10.
