glad it's not just me. I consider myself pretty good at docs but the ATProto stuff kept going over my head. looking forward to checking out this blog post! 🫡
I thoroughly believe more people would build for #atproto if the documentation wasn't so dry and technical.
I learned more from @nickthesick.com's 5-minute blog post about lexicon publishing than I did from the official @atproto.com docs.

"you will need separate domain names for your PDS hosting and your app... if you have an app at greensky.app, you should not use pds.greensky.app as a PDS hostname" 😬 😬 😬
would have been good to include on the previous article, which was a guide on how to set up a PDS!

New Leaflet post! Where I try to process my thoughts and feelings about the modern, hostile internet based on conversations with a buch of other Philadelphia musicians.
Market Research
I asked Philadelphia musicians about social media and streaming. The results will not surprise you!

I'm sold on ATProto and ActivityPub. The big question is whether the benefits of either are great enough to overcome their complexity to a non-technical person. How can I explain "it's decentralized" to a Philly DIY musician in a way that they'll care? Once I say the word "server" I've lost them.

Hello, Leaflet!
No, not the JavaScript library for maps, but the writing platform that uses the AT Protocol. How many Leaflet posts are about Leaflet? Probably a lot. I heard Nostr is mostly just people talking about...

"Is Bluesky federated?" ended up being a much more complicated question than I anticipated.
