Community privacy is one of our top priorities at @transrights.northsky.social which isn't possible out of the box with any ATproto implementation today that doesn't just hide an entire PDS. We're developing in the open and so I've published a proposal on it, feedback as always is we

Everyone need to go watch Nigerian Wicked now

Elections are heating up in the states and there's a lot of conservatives and centrists trying to both sides or just get people riled up. Don't engage with them, amplify our voices.

We're wrapping up testing of a fix for the following: - Unable to mention users - New logins failing as cannot fetch preferences Search will not be addressed as it is an upstream issue with Blacksky.

Update: We are finishing up testing of a fix, Search will not be addressed as it is not functioning for Blacksky. A fix will be deployed to address: - Unable to mention users - Logging in with a new account fails as app cannot fetch preferences

We're aware of issues with mentioning people and search on the northsky app, we're working on a fix for it.

I made a website that lets you cut out old magazines from the internet archive (or any PDFs you own) and make collage art out of them: ✂️ clipart.studio

Alright it is up! @pronouns.northsky.social labeler is online! There's over 20 pronoun combinations so I did the radical thing of making a little page where you can sign in and pick your pronouns! It just likes the post behind the scenes

Welcome to the Northsky Pronouns Labeler! Like a post to get the pronoun. Alternatively use this little site to sign in and pick your pronouns! If you notice any problems place tag @transrights.northsky.social as this labeler is not monitored.

BREAKING: the Massachusetts House just passed one of the best data privacy bills in the country. It includes a total ban on the sale of precise location data and includes a private right of action allowing people to sue Big Tech over data abuses. HUGE WIN! But there’s more work to do 🧵

If allies were to bring attention to them we'd immediately be able to call out the pattern of the radical Christian groups in America financing all of this.

What I would really love is proper coverage and discussion around issues outside Europe/USA. I only see mention when X country legalizes things and never when things are happening. Like Ghana just passed aN anti-LGBT bill but that news is drowned out by a hyper focus on America/UK.

"Wang’s business is keen to rebuild the relationship between content creator and the person viewing the content, as well as communities, fandoms and other small groups that social media has, historically, united." Yes I am! Thanks @lilyford.bsky.social www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/dig...

Happy Pride Month from the Northsky Team! It's a pleasure to serve our 2SLGBTQIA+ community and work to build a sustainable platform for us and by us. Our joy, our struggles, our kindness, our art and culture, our talents and our humanity bring so much vibrance to the world. Keep living out loud!

I'm talking about Northsky stuff, hop in and listen! twitch.tv/dotmeowfound...

I knew it

If you didn't see it, latest northsky newsletter mentions the conference vods including the vod jam entry I made which is the best way to watch them.

Splicing microcosm into social app notes - old posts missing replies - notification lag - avatars load kinda weird? - microcosm is magic

I’m gonna be on a stream with @dotmeow.org !

Gonna be liking every ace awareness skeet I see

To all my asexual siblings, happy asexual awareness day

Migration process repaired and upgraded! Now there should be fewer blob-related failures, we've added more detailed info about blob uploads, and we've added an "import missing blobs" option if you encounter any missing media. Thank you for your patience and invites will resume shortly!

I live in a small German village with a shop that basically clears estates and lists it online. Every month they list Nazi memorabilia and every time I report it.

@skeetsapp.com übersetzt jetzt komplette Timelines und Feeds in eure Sprache. Alles on-device.

@bsky.app is global. Your feed shouldn't have borders. Introducing auto-translation for @skeetsapp.com - read every post in your language, instantly. The conversation just got a lot bigger 🌐

This is exactly why we set out to build out permissioned data. Our whole vision is around turning feeds into real Communities you’re part of rather than a distilled view of the firehose.

Quick update: we are preparing the final change which will kick off in 30ish minutes

Proud to announce that Northsky Social will be joining forces, as such I will be stepping in as interim CEO of Blacksky Algorithms while we search via #ATHiring I look forward to working closely with Rudy and the team to make the Atmosphere blacker and queerer than ever before.

another banger by Evelyn, tuned into the northsky theme for this one :)

@kandake.africa's talk about private data was a highlight, she's done some amazing work with Stratos. And check out these amazing docs! stratos.zone

I am still to this moment in a state of shock by how much recognition and reception I received as I spoke about stratos, and how passionate people were to discuss how we can do better to care for each other. I’ll rewatch everything once @stream.place publishes the recordings and be pestering folks.

So many have been invaluable to northsky and this week I was able to properly thank them in person and express my deep appreciation for all that they have done. Learning about community growth, trust, and care will have a deep lasting impact on the work we do and how we protect our communities.

#AtmosphereConf was the opportunity to meet and engage in active discussion about what it means to not only build apps but the relationships between us and also as a community. There were countless people I feel privileged to have met and exchange even a few words with.

If you want to hear more about permisioned attend my session on sunday!
