New: Last Week in #fediverse - ep 93This week's news- With Bluesky the main topic of conversations, people are experimenting with Starter Packs on the fediverse as well- @subclub can now turn any RSS feed into a paywalled #activitypub newsfeed- Pixelfed will not pursue an #atproto integration following negative feedback from the communityRead at:https://fediversereport.com/last-week-in-fediverse-ep-93/

@fediversereport Understand that in principle Bluesky is built on an architecture that is designed to be open and distributed, and that their leaders seem sincere. However, there are things you only learn by doing, and so far they are not doing it.

New: A Conceptual Model of ATProto and ActivityPubYou might want to know a little bit more about how #Bluesky and #atproto works, without needing to know all the technical details. This is a high level overview of how to think about how atproto works, and how it differs from #ActivityPub. It is also a reflection on the concepts of decentralisation and federation, and what they bring to both the #fediverse and the #atmosphere Read at: https://fediversereport.com/a-conceptual-model-of-atproto-and-activitypub/
