in startups it's important to share credit!

so, not: "I fractured my ring finger"

but rather: "my cofounder and I collaborated on delivering the ultimate 'fracturing my ring finger' experience, together"

@awarm.space & I putting in that ~teamwork~ <3

This is cool, & striking that it's maybe the closest I've seen to the collab vibes & direction we explored @ hyperlink.academy — channels as 'rooms', live calls, shared workspace — but…in a code editor! Gives it a strong opinionated context of use we never quite figured out

current state of our "what blocks to add next in leaflet?" poll

lotta footnote sickos out there in the atmosphere blogosphere!

haha table, footnote, image gallery have stayed neck and neck (and neck), I think we'll *at least* have to add all three of those

Same yeah, I think this is cool as an experiment but I see this and…yeah 99% of ppl don't have one of these wallets (me included) so this isn't currently a real solution

lol nice half my "Popular With Friends" feed this morning is ppl sharing @danabra.mov's new "Open Social" post :)

if you haven't read yet…great one to have in your back pocket & send to friends who are bluesky/atproto-curious but don't fully get the potential yet! --> overreacted.io/open-social/

niceeeee! reminds me: I'm coming for the .town town crown 👑

Fun fact, we *do* actually do something like this :)

Leaflet doesn't have this exact feature yet (backlinks to all related Bluesky discussions) — but similar: we parse the firehose for Bluesky posts w/ our quote param in their embed record…

…and show in a post where it's been quoted on Bluesky!

ohohoho you don't say! how long's that been there? 😅

(ps to whom it may concern! on click through to 'see all projects' most of the highlighted ones are actually not listed at docs.bsky.app/showcase)

need more experiments w/ collective blogging!

from thehistoryoftheweb.com/do-blogs-nee... — cool participatory precedent here

@leaflet.pub could be great for this…from friends making shared writing spaces, to bigger communities inviting members to publish together…

Some good convo in this @bmann.ca post — I replied to @ranganaut.bsky.social w/ thoughts on comments, links/backlinks btw posts, and ways to interlink & reference content in @leaflet.pub :)

[yes, small irony: no comment quoting yet so sharing manually for now!]

I've noticed several great ~linkblogs~ on @leaflet.pub lately — here's a lil thread!

oh and btw for my linkblog friends & similar collection-makers etc. using Leaflet — we just added iframe embeds!

for a bunch of these, particularly useful for nice YouTube video display…but plz test others too!

Yes would love some common format for inter-lexicon references! Def would be cool for leaflet…literally right here in my notes from friday's nyc atproto meetup :)
August 27, 2025 at 2:46 AM
someone talk me out of getting one of these for my backyard…
August 25, 2025 at 9:26 PM
sneak peek: getting ready for tomorrow's NYC atproto meetup!

I'll be there with @awarm.space — find us if you'd like a custom hand-stamped @leaflet.pub notebook 📔🍃✨
