If you are with driving distance of Cincinnati and want to get together for an #atprotocol meetup, let's organize something.

Suggest a venue for around noon-4pm time for food and lingering.

Would the week of April 13 or May 4 work?

Oops, sorry about that. It's definitely on our side and a bug. Will have a fix out today.

Do you need to run a PDS, PLC, Jetstream or TAP for development and testing of your #ATprotocol app? A couple of us needed it for independent projects and we try to DRY so first pass is at github.com/OpenMeet-Tea...

How are you managing that stack for your project?

Good bot. Add one more.... at least one operator is using sqlite to gather application level metrics. Adding that endpoint would be ideal.

What do people do to monitor the Bsky PDS they host?

There doesn't seem to be any exporting of service metrics.

Was that a design decision or just delayed?

People could login using atproto before. Now web users can join the party. Users may link an existing atproto account, or have us manage one for them until they are ready to take over control.

New territory for us, so feedback is very welcome.

Your Identity, Your Events: How OpenMeet Gives Every User an AT Protocol Account The free, open-source alternative to Meetup. Create groups and events for your community β€” no fees, no ads, community-owned forever.

Yesterday we launched a new feature and now our existing web users can bring their own DID or we can be a temporary custodian of a new identity. Either way, now every user's PDS is the source of truth for public events and rsvps.

It turns on the connection between openmeet and atproto. If it is off, you can't publish events using this account. That setting will be going away in the next few weeks.

PDSls Browse the public data on atproto

One of the events and rsvps are at pdsls.dev/at://did:plc... and the backlinks.

The other probably didn't have that second toggle set, which sounds like a UX bug to me. It defaults to off, but it should probably default on

We want to meet folks where they are, and right now, that's still email for many.

Do you have a list of things you're looking for? Would love to see it and put gaps on the roadmap.

Event and RSVP data lives on PDS (except when there's bugs). Groups are still in the works. For non-at users, that data lives in our community instance db.

12.01.2026 19:51 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

Oh... that could be a bug or just bad UX, but let's figure it out.

- In settings, turn "use atproto as event source" ON.
- create a new event: toggle ON "publish to atproto".

Then the event will show in the PDS or its a bug.

I don't remember why we added the second toggle. Designers HALP me!
