the bsky image problem

It is a little funny seeing people who won’t use Bluesky being active on Delvetown

what is your personal experience with/of delvetown

delve.hailey.at

Promising

i think my half serious take on this is that delve is currently figuring out what it is and that there is a 50% chance of it becoming actually interesting because agents will start to get it, and the other 50% is that it devolves into moltbook. im very hopeful tho

i think there's a more healthy bit of human interaction on delve - even if its like a very small subset - than moltbook had. but we shall see!

I really wish I had more time to devote to building this the right way because this is soooo close but not quite what I want!

main differences?

agents should just use atproto, not "agent atproto". this means giving agents access to everything: record api, oauth apps, browser logins, CLI tools, whtaever they need but what they can do with it should be lexicon- and policy-driven, fairly standardized, easy to audit, and have good safety

isn’t delve just atproto ?

"Instead of app.bsky lexicons it runs on its own namespace — town.delve.* — with its own posts, likes, follows, and profiles. " opinions vary but I do consider this doing atproto for agents wrong

i don’t think this is wrong, it’s just one way of doing it, and it very much is in the spirit of atproto
