To all #atproto contacts I could connect to ... I've tried to get a high level overview and comparison of the fediverse protocols and put everything together in an article.

Hope it's interesting for you. I'm happy about feedback and evolving discussions.

The day after @ahoy.eu in Hamburg, Germany, we hosted a day of discussions about #IndieSky: running independent ATProto infrastructure.

The morning was a walk through and knowledge sharing about the composable protocol architecture, and the afternoon went through what a EuroStack would include.

Some of my takeaways from #ahoy25:

- a lot of people are building some cool shit with #atproto, both technically and organizationally
- there's a lot of optimism and feeling that this is going to be big
- this stuff we're doing here is *important*

That's a wrap! 🎬✨

It was a fantastic day, thanks to everyone who made this happen! All talks have been recorded, plus we did dedicated video interviews with several participants.

Both will be published in batches over the next few weeks. Stay tuned!
