Att Bluesky tappar aktiva användare och användare som bland annat Techcrunch skrivit om är inget märkligt utan ganska naturligt.

Part of my online presence has a new home, and why it matters.

Over the last few months, I’ve been thinking through what services that cross the Atmosphere would look like. It’s led to a few experiments that are worth sharing, so here’s the first one.
Last weekend, I was at the second annual AtmosphereConf among 300-some-odd of the kindest people I think I’ve ever met in tech/tech-adjacent spaces. I wanted to capture some of my emotions as I left the space on Monday, so here’s a peek into my experience.

Rudy Fraser has implemented AT Protocol in Rust to support the Blacksky project: Building custom social media algorithms to promote and amplify Black content. Join us to learn from Rudy in what he has built so far, what his roadmap is, and how you can help.
