Guys... GUYS, listen. I am begging you all to think bigger! The Atmosphere may be a fun space to explore how familiar services and apps interact—but it's still just social media. The protocol enables us to change behaviors and solve *systemic* problems It's the thing that gets us TO the thing.

I am thinking pretty big and agree with your thread here. Who do you think needs to hear this? How should it be explained? How can we help support you in what you’re doing with tracklist?

Aside from devs? I believe AT Proto is nearing the stage where we need a platform with impact capital and grant funding. If the community events do not bring us together, then they’re failing to serve people like me at the expense of attending. Messaging across the board must take the gloves off

OK, I'm still not seeing how / what you're reacting to - I respect your PoV. Did you not like the announcement blog post? Or the placeholder conf website? Can you give me an example of messaging that would resonate for you?

I’m reacting to an overall sentiment distilled into a meme that’s (nothing personal to who made it) got the whole thing backwards. And it’s reflective of AT/Atmosphere’s ability to like, take itself seriously. The protocol enables much more than making friends; I think that’s missing from comms

Welcome to decentralized ecosystems! There is no central theme or comms manager. I take this pretty intently (serious / playful are stances). One technique I use, is leading with joy. People are joining and building with us, because it's a fun crew. I think, absolutely, there's room for revolution

I’m happy to get on a live call with you as I did before to dig in with you because I care about hearing your words. And/or take things to long form in the forum because 300 characters meant “revolution” is what I had room for. Don’t think microblogs will get us further.

I appreciate it, and I know you care. I'm just not interested in repackaging my feelings into long-form debate at the moment. We can still talk one on one if you want. I believe you have my email.

Hmm. Not debate - helpful if you can write a little shorter than book length & longer than microblog to share your POV. I agree that there are many messages that different audiences are receptive to - so I’d love to hear one of yours. We agree - more needed. Please help or give me direction.
