While I am not old enough to have the same amount of nostalgia here, I fully agree. The Atmosphere is by far the most exciting development on the Internet I've seen in my life so far.
I've picked up "Ghost Nation" by @heguisen.bsky.social in traditional Chinese. Hoping to use this as both a language learning exercise and to learn a lot more about the country. Will take me a long time to get through this though as I kinda have to go sentence by sentence.

In this spirit, the DMA must be extended to social media. The European social media industry has been asking for this for the longest time. We know that we can take this market by storm if it is ever opened up to competition and freedom of movement.
Europe has made a sovereign choice: digital markets should be fair and contestable. 🇪🇺 Enforcing the Digital Markets Act means protecting that level playing field and creating the conditions for more companies to grow, innovate and compete in Europe.
Published a short personal story. I've started to pay more attention to the small details in everyday communication and this one stuck with me.
I dunno man, recently I had to take over my colleagues mac for a presentation because the screen didn't get detected on my computer, running NixOS. I love Nix but this seems a bit of overstatement.
The benefits of Nix are basically complete confidence in your system working at all times. It's great. The downsides of Nix are you have to read and write Nix. It's not great.
I'll be speaking at code.talks in Hamburg on November 5th! codetalks.com/speaker/mari... If you are going to be there, do say hi

With everything going on around W I really come to wish the @stream.place collaboration would end. They are clearly hostile towards the open social web and should be treated as such.

Dear friends who don't speak German: Go to YouTube ASAP, turn on subtitles → autogenerated translation and watch this video! TL;DR: #WSocial is posting legal names, nationalities and approx. birthdays of verified users as a public record on the Atmosphere. Confronted, they claim it's "by design" 🤯

Wrote about motivations for creating @shelf.cafe, (another) link aggregator site, why I'm using atproto for it, and how I'm trying to bootstrap it. Will follow with more posts on all the juicy technical details ps you can now add an upvote widget to your blog! jola.dev/posts/buildi...

3 Monate alt, immer noch wahr. #wsocial
Schon erstaunlich, wie gut die PR von #WSocial funktioniert: Breiteste Berichterstattung sogar in Fernsehnachrichten bei unkritischer Wiederholung der Talking Points des Startups plus Werbetweets durch von der Leyen. Dabei sollte man schon genauer hinschauen: netzpolitik.org/2026/soziale...

advice for junior developers: you are no longer a developer you are a builder you are a solution provider enter every room and make things happen learn when no one is watching create because you can fix problems because they offend you bend the world to your will and take credit
advice for junior developers: run

Making me want to start a homelab in this economy ... www.nijho.lt/post/homelab...
I aim to read more blogs & articles, today I picked up addyosmani.com/blog/loop-en... I really think there is something too this but it takes a lot of experimentation / iteration to get the setup right (as @brittanyellich.com would know bsky.app/profile/brit... 👀)
Another week, another completely new development setup. Can't get disrupted by other people if you're constantly disrupting yourself 😏
I had a great time speaking at bit summit in Hamburg yesterday. Love the tech focus, no vendor booths, no sales pitches bit-summit.com

interesting; it looks like Anthropic quietly pulled their donation of $150,000 in AI token credits to Omarchy. they no longer appear as a patron and this announcement post has scrubbed any mention of them. backlash… kind of works sometimes?

This is as egregious as it's hilarious. Can we *please* get DMA horizontal interoperability for social media @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu, the European social internet is more than ready, we just need an open market to compete in.
Fucking hell. Facebook is now limiting the number of links that a page or professional profile can include in a post to TWO PER MONTH, unless you pay them $7.99 a month. Fucking assholes.
Seeing the @stream.place label on @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu is kind of nice tho
