boards · private message boards on AT Proto
Invite-only message boards on Bluesky's AT Protocol. Posts live in each member's own PDS, readable only by the board's members and never on the public firehose.

dezwijger.nlhappy Monday, I wrote up my decision-making around our new endpoints.bsky.app HTTP reference! Thanks everyone for the push to do this 😊
About the new endpoints.bsky.app
alex-bsky.leaflet.pubIt's release week at the house, and here's our next announcement: Mise en Mode, the emerging web standard! AT Protocol is a federated model for building social media apps like Bluesky. We want folks in the Atmosphere to adopt for supporting a visitor's own look over their own. standard.mode.place
standard.mode.place: carry your look from app to app
standard.mode.placeI'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.
Alright @jay.bsky.team @pfrazee.com @dholms.xyz @why.bsky.team @emily.bsky.team ..restofbskyteam hear me out network of ActivityPub servers = "fediverse" so federated AT Protocol / BlueSky = "ATmosphere" ;) okay sorry for pinging you all have a nice day
🌌 We’re excited to show you another great addition to the "growing constellation of interconnected apps" on the open web: Bonfire🔥 Bonfire helps build spaces for communities, outside of the Big Tech social platforms, that are shaped by the people who will use them, for exactly what they want.
