There is a real danger that if @atproto.com develops a visual brand in the next year or so I may find myself with a side hustle in branded baby clothes πŸ˜…

I’d love to know if I can watch how this goes!

I’m actively trying to drop/not start projects at the moment (first baby is due to arrive in ~6 weeks 😳) but I’ve been wanting this tool for ages, and want to dream of a future where I have headspace to contribute πŸ˜„

A Philosophical Approach to IT Architecture Buy A Philosophical Approach to IT Architecture by Sorgrdager, Byron (ISBN: 9781919502106) from Amazon's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders.

My friend published a book! Even *before* reading it, I can tell this is the software manual we need today:

> [Byron] invites you to become a philosopher-architect. This is not a technical manual; it is a call to rethink the very foundations of our work.

freeq β€” IRC with identity IRC server with AT Protocol (Bluesky) identity authentication. Connect with any IRC client, authenticate with your Bluesky account.

Not quite ready to launch, but if you're a decentralized identity and/or AT proto nerd, you might want to take an early peek at this freeq.at

Here's my first edit on the March 3rd Lunar Eclipse. 15 moon shots, 1 foreground. Taken over a 3 hourish period.

YMMV but Kagi (particularly with the β€œsmall web” lens enabled) is a breath of fresh air. Do give it a try 😊

Continue reading on Unthread I built a TwitLonger for Bluesky. Write as much as you want, it saves to your repo as a Standard.site document record, then posts a teaser to your feed with a link back. Read more about it on https://unthread.at/@aka.dad/3mg5ejw7eil23

Huh, I’m not sure where your problem was β€” I’m deploying my @tangled.sh hosted repo on @wisp.place without issue (see here: tangled.org/byjp.me/shut... ) β€” but boop.cat looks cool too!

Yeah; many are interoperable, but it’s not easy yet for sure. There’s a steady trickle away from X to Bluesky, but no such luck with Insta, I think it’s still growing!

Yeah! I’m looking forward to the roll out of buckets!

I didn’t know buffer supports insta! I’ll see if I can convince a friend to post via there; but it’d still need the personal data/buckets *and * support on sprk.so to really land.

The next challenge is convincing local businesses…

Wow! A fix for your site *and* an improvement for everyone via the bsky teamβ€½ That’s awesome! Thank you 😊

They won’t move because:
- friends are on insta + no bridges
- lots of great discovery for local things on insta (sprk.so is still 80% US politics for me, nothing from Hackney, London, UK)
- no cross posting tools (eg. one app to loops.video, sprk.so & insta)
- no private account on atproto (yet 🀞)

I’ve been hunting for a way to see my friends’ insta posts outside that network β€” I just don’t think it’s possible (private accounts πŸ˜”).
I’ve already deleted my own account, so I’m happy revelling in my reduced Meta exposure, but I’m on my own for now.

I’d take any tips if you have them!

Wonderful 😊 It looks like this one deserves its spot on @edent.telβ€˜s Open Benches tho!

You can add it with the photo you took (assuming you still have the original, with the lat/long attached!)
