Semble: A social knowledge network for research on ATProto - ATmosphereConf 2026
Research Project for ATProto Ecosystem Brand and User Experience Needs
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...

Crowdsourced Research Synthesis on ATProto: Envisioning an Inclusive Future - Jay Patel - @infotainm
wrote a blog post about a 2015 keynote by @mikecaulfield.bsky.social that stuck with me and how it relates to atproto. with AtmosphereConf right around the corner I wanted to get this (and my next one) out there so it could contribute to the conversation. would be honored if you'd give it a look :)

ezras-thoughts.leaflet.pubanother good nugget from #ATmosphere conf delivered by @eclecticcapital.bsky.social: ATProtocol could offer "open enough to scale, closed enough to mean something" ‘the successful outcomes will look more like "guilds" and "collectives" than traditional startups’

atmosphereconf.orgA great write-up on #ATmosphere from New_ Public Expert-In-Residence @cjtait.bsky.social!
Reflections on ATmosphere Conference 2026...
leaflet.pubSome of us in the ActivityPub world feel jealous of AtProto’s success (like me). But more decentralization is a win for everyone. With Bridgy from @anew.social connecting protocols, this isn’t competition, it’s momentum. We’re stronger together, so let’s build the social web humanity deserves 🚀
atproto is actually a massive socioeconomic experiment in which we test the hypothesis "contributors to the common good who deserve success should be able to find it" and initial results are looking good

Excited to announce that the Graze team is joining @flipboard.com! We're thrilled to be working with such a stellar team continuing to build the next era of the attention economy. Read more below:
Opportunity for some atproto talks to spread the word about what we’re building in the Atmosphere. Perhaps a @eurosky.social talk?

FYI #OpenSource friends: call for papers for Luxembourg's October OS conference. Proposals for 20 min talks are due late August. This makes 2 years I've not been able to go, so, vicariously, please consider it! It's especially strong on OS for sovereignty, gov, AI, and, this year, edtech.
