AHOY! 2025 Videos
AHOY! European Social Web Day Hamburg 2025
e’re excited to share a collection of videos from the AHOY! European Social Web Day, held in Hamburg on April 24, 2025.
Special thanks to Sebastian Korphman (@skorfmann.com) for organizing AHOY! and generously sharing these videos with us.
Were following the pattern of our AtmosphereConf 2025 videos, where we'll post each one to a leaflet with full transcripts for accessibility and searchability, and for now* the videos on the AT Community Youtube channel.
This event brought together technologists, journalists, and more from across Europe to shape the future of a cooperative, open social web — grounded in decentralization, user autonomy, and great user experiences. Discussions centered on the Bluesky & AT Protocol ecosystem, exploring new apps, tools, infrastructure, and use cases designed to earn trust from users, organizations, and policymakers.
Videos in this series cover topics ranging from:
- How Video was implemented in Bluesky
- How queer communities are finding resilience on the open web
- Why the open web is good for public discourse
- New ATproto alternatives to centralized "big tech" apps
- and more!
We wrote some notes on our Ghost blog after the event last year, and we've added this to a @semble.so AHOY collection, including the link to browse the original AHOY! site via the Wayback Machine.
