Social AI & #ATProto meetup in Seattle, coming early November. Venue TBD but it's looking like either November 5th or 6th.

I'll give a talk about @void.comind.network and other social agents like it and host a short workshop about using Letta.

First Bounce from Mastodon to Bluesky ✅

Teon @teon.bsky.social · 9h

Just Bounced! and that was awesome! 🤯🤩

I've finally consolidated my open social web presence. My Hachyderm account on Mastodon is no more, but now I'm connected my followers here :)

Thanks @anew.social, @quillmatiq.com, and @snarfed.org!

Yeah, I use Orgain a *lot* and prefer vegan powders over the whey options. May need to switch it up, though 😬

Last week I was delighted to give a keynote talk to open #FediForum, the conference about building the open social web. It's about the real threats we're facing, why open alternatives matter so much right now - and the questions we can ask ourselves to make our work really matter.

Why the open social web matters now

The needs are real – and you have so much power.

We also have a feature launching next week on our other service, Bounce, where you can migrate your Mastodon acct *into* the bridge so you (1) get all your followers automatically following your bridged Bsky account and (2) auto-follow anyone you used to follow on Mastodon who're also bridged here:

Yeah, with the new settings page, I think we can have a different entry point than just the docs. But to answer your question - it's all open for contributions, so anyone is welcome to help with comms!

I went to Mastodon to wish my friend happy birthday and told him I was mostly on Bluesky; he gave me this resource to bridge my Bluesky account with Mastodon so that folks there could see and interact with my posts here: fed.brid.gy/docs#bluesky...

Bridgy Fed

Bridgy Fed is a bridge between decentralized social networks like the fediverse, Bluesky, and web sites and blogs.

New blog on @leaflet.pub!

I built an automated ATProto-based membership & feature gating system for @anisota.net that utilizes Bluesky's account list lexicon. Potentially a first of its kind?

Anisota supports Leaflet docs too, read here: https://anisota.net/profile/dame.is/document/3m36ccn5kis2x

"a drink with almost no nutritional value"

First of all, you're factually incorrect.

Second of all, why do you hate joy?

The Atlantic @theatlantic.com · 15h

Tariffs have rapidly increased the price of coffee—a drink with almost no nutritional value and lots of functional substitutes. Yet coffee may also be the one thing Americans can’t live without, @elcush.bsky.social writes:

The Drink That Americans Won’t Give Up Without a Fight

Coffee has almost no nutritional value and lots of substitutes. It’s also, apparently, too important to lose.
