My "Introduction to #ATProto" blog post that I've been working on for some time is ready 🙂 It goes through things like records, lexicons, DIDs, then PDS/AppView etc. and how it all works together. Let me know if anything is wrong!

More parts later, with the Fedi comparisons & misconceptions etc.

Walkthrough of the various parts and concepts in Bluesky's AT Protocol (ATProto), the types of servers involved and how it all fits together

Yeah, I haven't heard about him before the dramas here either… I haven't really dug into it, but apparently he's some journalist who writes on transgender issues in a way that makes trans people here hate him

Ok, so if you click through the link at the bottom there in PDSls, it's apparently been a quote-post of this post by Jay: bsky.app/profile/did:... - which… I guess makes this look a bit worse (as in: I can see how a mod could have interpreted this in a more negative way)

Kuba Suder 🇵🇱🇺🇦 @mackuba.eu · 2d

Ohh, this way… yeah I'd need to see the context

Interestingly, Link's profile can be seen right now on the Red Dwarf social-app fork, which uses Constellation and direct PDS access: reddwarf.whey.party/profile/did:...

I wasn't searching for Paul, I was searching for mentions of Bluesky, and one of them was a post in that thread from which I clicked through to the root

Well, the context is that some part of the userbase have been very angry at Jay in the last week at least, so anything she posts is a good opportunity for them to show the anger, even if it's a comment about an adorable cat ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Looks like the situation has calmed down a bit… (this is *not* because of that "limited content mode" - I'm recording all matches to the table, they just aren't returned in the getFeedSkeleton)

(but oof, that 6th… 💀)

Ok this seems to work:

Hmm I wonder why 😶

AT_URI_REGEXP = %r(^at://did:plc:[a-z0-9]+/ ...

Kuba Suder 🇵🇱🇺🇦 @mackuba.eu · 15h

Lulz it broke on your own post 🙃🙃

I deployed some changes to my feedgen library, which added some extra validations, and apparently the regexp I wrote doesn't match the URI for did:webs 🫠

PDSes : AppViews is like websites : search engines - if there are multiple search engines, they're indexing more or less similar internet space and will both contain data from more or less all visible websites

Why are you attacking me personally Dame
