Finally done. I was able to talk with @pfrazee.com, as well as a handful of other folks with insight on the situation. #atmosphereconf trezy.com/blog/the-mar...

I understand the concerns, but I don't think Attie sherlocked Graze at all. While they both build feeds, they have very different target audiences and usecases.

I think Graze is well-positioned to build an Attie competitor if that's something they want to do: an agent-based feed builder with Graze's visual programming environment as the intermediate representation would be awesome.

I also think there are great opportunities for interoperability here. There's been talk about being able to export feeds from Attie and run them elsewhere. I think Graze should build an importer!

The ability to rapidly prototype a feed in Attie and then if it turns out well import that into Graze and fine-tune it by using Graze's more sophisticated tools as sources/filters around the logic from attie (or eventually using Graze's graphs to rewrite that logic) would be super cool.

I agree with the majority of your points! The issue is that Bluesky has been saying they want to grow and support the Atmosphere, but the presentation they gave signaled the opposite.
