Is my ATProto app actually decentralized?
A few days ago I wrote about rolld, the little board game tracker I built on the AT Protocol. As I mentioned then, this is very much a learning experiment for me, a way to play with ATProto and learn about it. In this post, I'd like to come back to a few of my struggles and the things I learned while designing it.

Drone show
We went to see a drone show tonight. It was nicely done but somehow the fireworks that came right after were still the highlight of the show.

rolld: I put my board game logs on AT Protocol
For years my board game log lived in a little WordPress plugin I wrote. rolld is my next small experiment: the same log, rebuilt on the AT Protocol, where each play is a record on your own PDS. Give it a try!

Microblogging sucks
Somehow @bunniesin.space managed to perfectly summarize why microblogging isn't for me, and why I think it does more bad than good overall.

Dungeon Crawler Carl TV show greenlit
As a Dungeon Crawler Carl fan, I've wondered if the success of the book series in the past couple of years meant that we would see the story come to other media. This is now happening!

Comments are a basic web feature. So why aren’t they solved on ATProto yet?
Comments are about as old and basic as the social web gets, so I assumed ATProto would have them figured out. It doesn't, not yet. Here is my take on why standard.site deferred comments on purpose, the handful of work-arounds people built, and what it says about how young the protocol still is.

Putting the WordPress block editor on the AT Protocol
What if your ATProto content was a WordPress block tree? I built a long-form editor where the standard.site "content" field is just Gutenberg blocks, no PHP anywhere.

Ultra-soft potato burger buns
The softest burger buns I've made at home, thanks to mashed potato worked right into the dough. I made them by hand, but they still came out perfect :)

The web was always social
Diving into the idea of bridging different social networks and protocols like ATproto and ActivityPub to enhance the web. Looking back at my personal web journey, from Web 2.0 to now, emphasizing that building connections can strengthen online communities.

Saison des foins
En Bretagne la saison des foins c'est typiquement entre mi-avril / mi-mai pour les couverts végétaux qui sont ensuite retournés pour y faire du maïs, ou jusqu'à juin pour les prairies plus permanentes. Plus tard et l'herbe est de moins bonne qualité, et ça stresse la prairie avec les chaleurs de l'été. Si l'agriculteur de...
