The Atmosphere needs a distinct brand identify, better tools for builders, a new UX for users, and a small empowered group willing to build it all.
About the Atmosphere
I’m writing this from the beautiful UBC campus in Vancouver where ATmosphereConf 2026 is taking place. It’s a gathering of developers, researchers, and entrepreneurs who are passionate about keepin…

Ten thoughts on the Atmosphere Conference...
Reflections on ATmosphere Conference 2026...
Bravo to @bmann.ca and @knowtheory.net for an amazing four days of open social web conversations in Vancouver! How many tech conferences present brilliant ta…
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.
the Atmosphere needs a LOT of care to be a functioning space for us all to have nice things. there are many people here with experience in tradbiz, both sides of grant and philanthropic funding there was even an expert in co-op structures at #atmosphereconf! ask for help! offer to help! dms open!

Putting my time where my #atmosphereconf ecosystem mouth is: if any early-stage ATProto team needs help honing their ops or strategy, ping me. If we are aligned, we can find a way to make it work.
I am so looking forward to digging into this. Tools & services to help web builders integrate their sites onto the atmosphere could turn the entire web into an Atmospheric recruitment service...

I have Plans™ for this + happy to introduce you to my collection of plugins for @astro.build, many of which are specifically made to integrate websites with ATproto, AND many of which funded through "Ms Boba delivers atproto-powered conference site ⇒ reusable tool happens" github.com/FujoWebDev/fujocoded-plugins
Signing into the Atmosphere is a bit of a lottery. This is a user problem. But it's also a builder problem. The Atmosphere needs a brand identify, a design system, tools for builders to drive broad dev and user adoption. wecanjustdothings.leaflet.pub/3mlv5oijn5s2q #ATmosphere 🌀 #ATproto 🪿

If we’re gonna have login with Atmosphere, do we not need an Atmosphere logo? @renderg.host
It’s a bit of an open secret that a group of us is working on forming an Atmosphere Community Co-op (which we’ll share more about publicly soon!) @roguewave.design created an open collection on @semble.so called Co-operatives. Please do share resources there.

semble.sofor atmosphere to be competitive, the cost of running a side project with a few users should be zero. i don’t know who needs to be convinced to make moves to solve this (cloudflare? vercel? etc) and what’s actually the common barrier (ingesting firehose?) but it needs to be super straightforward
flo-bit
yeah i *do* like it too but its actually quite expensive to run as i am doing it currently (not *that* expensive, its like 5-10 bucks/month) and no one is really using it, also i have way to many projects :P preferably bluesky should just add something pretty close to that themselves
Guys... GUYS, listen. I am begging you all to think bigger! The Atmosphere may be a fun space to explore how familiar services and apps interact—but it's still just social media. The protocol enables us to change behaviors and solve *systemic* problems It's the thing that gets us TO the thing.
zeu
this is why i love ya'll
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
