You can now @ people in Reams! Now you can see their profile photo when mentioned When you use the auto suggest, it'll create a link to the at uri of their profile, clicking it takes you to @aturi.to Interop wins! If you use only the @ you still get the chip, but it's saved as plain text.

I have a dream that one day all of the apps I use will be on protocol. Getting our own markdown editor à la obsidian is a huge step forward that goal. Congrats on getting this out the door @hyl.st !!

Did you miss us last week? Well, we have an exciting one to make up for it :)

It's that time of the week again! Today, we're sharing Chalk, a document editor that shows how apps that need fine-grained permissioning can be built on spaces. Chalk is built on our last three releases!

Software factories are a bad analogy that completely misunderstand the nature of software engineering. Wrote some thoughts on a better analogy, which also helped me think through where coding agents work well and where they don't. dajin.dev/posts/software_factory

here at @atproto.nyc community day 2026 [4t1hf5ng] #atprotonyc

At Habitat, we've been thinking about what apps might need to build rich permission-ed interactions and interoperate. Here's our take ⤵️

@tynanpurdy.com is anyone building a Beli alternative on the protocol? @dajinchu.bsky.social is looking for a project for the nyc community day #atprotonyc

Over the next few months, we'll be spotlighting parts of Habitat one at a time as we work through our roadmap to a stable release in ~6 months. Here's a little preamble to that!

Catch us at our next meetup in just under two weeks, featuring @ronentk.me, presenting on @semble.so and @atproto.science!

Just saw a post on here about reciprocal AI norms, and how it is not appropriate to send people AI generated code without validating it yourself. I've been thinking the exact same thing recently, but now I can't find the post! Seriously I've been searching for an hour, does anyone have the link?

as a little pre-show surprise, here's an early draft of the permissioned data proposal! github.com/bluesky-soci...

@chris.pardy.family wrote some thoughts on using CRDTs in atproto: leaflet.pub/p/did:plc:dp... He's looking for feedback and thoughts, I'm formulating my own, but I think it's an excellent start!

We've spent the last couple weeks deep diving on the permissioned spaces proposal and what it means for Habitat's use case! We plan to release a formalized spec on what we're building soon, but in the mean time appreciate any thoughts on our design.

Join us on our mission to visit every brewery in Boston 🍻

👀👀👀

Do you like coding and music? We're going to @codeforboston.bsky.social TOMRROW to hack together on Porchfest using @atproto.com. Bring your laptop and your ideas!

Today is the day! We're meeting up at Democracy Brewing at 7PM. Come hang out! We've got Scoiattolo of Skywatch, Ethan Graf of Habitat Network, max of Lichen Wiki, and more! See you there 🫶🏻🍻

Heading out to #somervilleporchfest today? @scoiattolo.mountainherder.xyz put the whole schedule on the atmosphere. Use any atmospheric events app to discover bands and plan your day! More might be coming in the next three hours…

hi! i'm looking for projects in the ATmosphere whose users are people in *organizations*. if that sounds like you or something you know about please reach out!

Hello Boston! Our next meetup is next Thursday at Democracy Brewing. Join us to share a bev and chat all about atproto, the internet, communities, and civic agency! Featuring @scoiattolo.mountainherder.xyz @eagraf.dev @notplants.bsky.social and @tynanpurdy.com There’s even special @rpg.actor swag

To date, @blackskyweb.xyz’s focus has been on building tools to provide a safer online space for members of the Black Twitter community to move to... With Acorn, Blacksky is providing access to these same tools to other communities that want to build their own spaces on the open social web.

Tonight!!! We are seeing some issues with the event link originally posted. Good thing we're in the Atmosphere! See the event here on Smokesignal with all details and RSVPs preserved.

Our next meetup is coming up in just a couple days. This is your chance to pick up stickers from the conference! See ya there. #atproto.local

Had a great call with @offline.arushibandi.com who is building @habitat.network The team has launched the first version of their Habitat Hub, and their first local first **private data** app - a collaborative notes editor, Habitat Docs habitat.network/habitat/docs

Some pre #AtmosphereConf photos from around Vancouver

I’ve been using Habitat Docs all day to take notes on all the great #ATscience talks. Hope everyone at the conf gets a chance to check it out! 📝 🔬

@atprotocol.dev looks like the atmosphere conf website is down

I am really looking forward to Arushi's @offline.arushibandi.com talk. As we were wrapping #AtmosphereConf 2025, she said thank you & a few other kind words on her way out the door. So I'm very pleased to see this talk, "in conversation with several of the talks from last year"

spaces, meet cliques! how we built a minimal calendar on pear (our permission-enforcing ATProto repo) and what we had to build to get there.

Check out my first blog! As the ATmosphere moves towards permissioned data, how do we make sure privacy is really preserved? Can we build a permissioned data app today? All that and more in the post 👀📅

happy friday folks! had to get this out, give it a go :)

over the next couple weeks, we're going to be sharing more about what we're building at @habitat.network :) here's the first ... excited to see things break for the first time I guess! habitat.leaflet.pub/3mggkuhjzjs2p

@habitat.network, we are so excited about ATProtocol not so we can get new social networks, but because of the primitives it provides for a world with user data agency. let's build that world.

beyond excited to be giving a talk at #ATmopshereConf and officially unveiling @habitat.network! i'll be talking about how we're trying to get away from skeumorphism (callback to @rude1.blacksky.team's talk from last year) and building for privacy-first usecases on the protocol. can't wait 🌱

Introducing Ecosystem Action Research: a pilot program to address shared challenges in the AT Protocol ecosystem with a cooperative approach to strategic innovation. By the community, for the community. Sign up to participate here:

Maybe it doesn't pan out, but right now the development happening on the AT Protocol (which is powering Bluesky app you're using to read this) feels like the impossibility exciting early days of a new and better internet.

At @habitat.network we are exploring the space around private data on the Atmosphere - feeling out the constraints and hidden opportunities that will define the next wave of ATProto enabled apps as they sprout up 🌱🍐 Excited to be sharing more soon!

goodbye, company device & hello, network! excited to build towards the internet we deserve to have: personal and connected, private and open 🌐

Semble alpha is now open! ✨ Check it out at semble.so More details in our leaflet pub! (link in next post > )
