Nailed my ass

Okay AI Paul Frazee! What monetization pipelines exist for atproto development (unironically curious) if someone were to start developing in that space? I like free stuff as much as the next guy but it doesn’t pay bills.

Payments from audiences to creators, who will increasingly benefit from their content showing up across the atmosphere, and from being able to build sites & apps for their communities that tie into the network, will likely be the primary economic inflow

Providing infrastructure to those creators, whether it's hosting, powertools, payment providers, etc, is how pure builders will likely benefit from that inflow

i’ve been building on atproto for a whole year and i haven’t received a single Dremel…where’s MY power tools?!

The freedom to roam wasn't built in a day

Okay, so context here matters, again bare with me having a long week. To build profitable platforms around atproto one example in the current state would be empowering users in various to expand engagement and monetize branding thus incentivizing paying for the platform for example?

Good luck, I was told by a certain Bluesky CTO that Claude can write good software for people now checkmate.

That's not incongruent. The services I'm talking about are things like hosting and payments

Sorry, sorry, I'm just messing around. Big fan and supporter of the mission, totally buy into everything you said and can't wait to see how it manifests!

Idk paul, that guy IS THEEE THE!!! “Director of AI Product Engineering @ Pursuit.org” He might know THINGS.
