The Open Web's second chance (w/ Dan Abramov) - Syntax #1025
Dan Abramov joins Scott and Wes to explain AT Protocol, the open standard quietly rebuilding the social web. They get into how it actually works, why it's way bigger than just Bluesky, and why Dan calls it one of the most interesting ideas on the internet right now.

The Open Graph protocol enables any web page to become a rich object in a social graph.
