ATProto is actually an astonishingly great fit for a ton of fandom needs and desires. I keep bringing up social bookmarking, but making publishing fanworks to a small, cheap server that you can own possible is also a big deal.

anyway, shout out to @essentialrandom.bsky.social for stepping in and purchasing fics.fan for the upcoming fanfic archive on atproto project!!!

yes, it's specifically to make the lexicon on the fan.fics namespace. next is challenging slices.network >:)

I finally finished all the fortune cookies I got from @fujocoded.bsky.social / @fujoweb.dev 😂

A picture of a bunch of fortunes on a table in front of a Izuku postcard.
One fortune reads "A character's suffering is a fan's delight"

If you're uncomfortable with Bluesky owning (and being able to delete) your data but don't want to go the whole way to self-hosted/another service, you should:

1) Register identity recovery keys, which will allow you to point your current identity to a new PDS
2) Backup your PDS periodically

Not to piggyback too hard on @haetae.cozy.fan's WIP fanfiction-on-ATproto prototype, but if you think that a grassroot effort to decentralize fanfics on ATproto is awesome, it is downstream of years of @fujocoded.bsky.social advocacy, and you should support us on patreon

If we get 5 new patrons I'll get ATproto/ActivityPub gijinka officially added to the @fujoweb.dev roster (and make them kiss)

we can fix the whole activitypub animosity towards atproto by making up two gay mascots for both protocols and then making them kiss. this will piss off at least one side enough for them to unite

We've enabled ao3.js to integrate with any "AO3 software"-based archive, using @katproto.girlonthemoon.xyz's superlove as a testing ground! Still a bunch of work to do for edge cases, but it's working!!!

Check out the branch: github.com/FujoWebDev/A... and ofc superlove superlove.sayitditto.net !!

If what you saw up there ☝️ looked impressive, know we couldn't do it without... you! And so, here's the open opportunities for this edition, which you can find (and apply for) in our hiring page: fujocoded.com/hiring (fujocoded.com/hiring)

Help us share our work and launches with everyone!

It remains true, month after month: writers, coders, and artists are always welcome to submit their business cards via our Business Cards Drop-off Forms. When hiring opportunities arise, we always pull these contacts up as we search for the right candidates!

Speaking of which, welcome to the special contracting opportunities we’re hiring for at this time 👇

💰Digital Relea$e: Are you a hype-generating machine? Do you know how to make online dwellers’ hearts go doki doki? Help us create a release plan for our upcoming Digital Pack! While you won’t have to do everything yourself, we need your help thinking through this launch, and planning (maybe even writing) content that gets all our supporters to share our joy…and, hopefully, their money.
💰WRITEME.md: Do you like writing? Do you like (even just some) coding? Do you love the idea of empowering others to, as they say, “supercharge” their coding powers with pre-made libraries or integrations? Come write the README.md files for our repositories, and tell others how to put our code to their own use! First step: our WIP @fujocoded/authproto integration, which adds ATproto authentication to any Astro site and lets visitors log in.

And—almost last!—something you might not believe we do, but that we spend quite a bit of time on, and are going to showcase more: CODE for everyone to use and contribute to.

Check out some of the libraries and tools we worked on, and get the links in the newsletter:

fujocoded.com/updates/25-0...

In the (Git)hub
Plugged In: A new Astro plugin Integration has landed! @fujocoded/astro-dev-only lets you hide any page of your Astro website from the prying eyes of visitors, making them only available during development! Big power, big JavaScript crimes.
Wall Pa(m)pered: Our “HTML&CSS Wallpaper Maker” got an upgrade! The Fortune Cookies wallpapers (soon in our digital pack!) dusted off our memory of its inner workings, which means we’ve released our “internal upgrades” for everyone to enjoy. You too can now create HTML snippets to reuse multiple wallpapers. What better way to practice your HTML & CSS? Make some wallpapers, and share them with us on socials!
Long Staffed: @bobaboard/ao3.js got a tiny bit more powerful thanks to a short-but-mighty external contribution: our friend Gingerchew—thank you!—added built-in support for short “ao3.org” links! If you wish to follow in their footsteps, we’d love to help you open or grab an issue, or be a “pinch-hitter” for an open Pull Request. All skill levels are welcome!

If you aren't keen on slides, last year's talk "Rebuilding Community on the (Fujo)Web" is now in two other formats, with a full blogpost (www.essentialrandomness.com/posts/rebuil...) and a new DashCon2 video (www.youtube.com/watch?v=glAH...) which brings us full circle, and features a Q&A!

Rebuilding Community on the (Fujo)Web, pt. 1 — The Downward Spiral of Community Projects – Essential Randomness

Independent online software is caught in a downward spiral of burnout and disillusionment. Can we stop it?

Catboys are a tough act to follow, but some of our most important work is simply talking about the reality of the web, indie development, and (most importantly) working together!

Our latest talk is "Working Together in a Dying World" (read author notes!)

essentialrandomness.com/working-toge...

A slide of a presentation with comments placed over it. The slide says "Working Together in a Dying World (in Comic Sans) by FujoCoded" and the comments say

"there are people out there who feel like I do but are coherent enough to make presentations about it"

"this was what I needed"

"graphics are incredible, 10/10, laughing as I cry"

Finally, what everyone follows us for... what we (apparently) are all about creating... our greatest contribution to the software development word—nevermind making coding accessible to the masses!

Welcome our two new Version Control Catboys: Gitea and Forgejo.
