microcosm: atproto building blocks

Updated discord community link! hop in!

@bad-example.com's Constellation is awesome. It's used everywhere on coffeencode.cc for loading record counts and comments!

Have at it. A PHP(8.5.12) Bluesky client. OAuth login, Bootstrap 4, jQuery, and loads everything without Bluesky's AppView by default thanks to @microcosm.blue It is a bit slow, especially when the caches are warming up. But that's a feature I hear. roomsky.app

The eMudhra intermediate CA compromise broadly impacts the atproto ecosystem. At this point lots of software has been patched, and we recommend upgrading if you run a distribution of the relay, pds, jetstream, or use the goat CLI. For general information see the site linked below, otherwise read on.

nice confirmation that slingshot's emudhra mitigation is working slingshot.microcosm.blue/xrpc/com.atp...

Fixed it thanks to the backlinks from @microcosm.blue

Browsing the new lexicons on @microcosm.blue is really exciting. They are just so many!!! ufos.microcosm.blue

I built a Bluesky post backlink index for @shelf.cafe and wrote up all the juicy technical details. Features kite+jetstream, @microcosm.blue's constellation, and amazingly, bloom filters! One of the most fun blog posts I've written. jola.dev/posts/buildi...

I've released a new version of Latch, the elixir OAuth client library, with some nice improvements including Slingshot integration for identity resolution. I've already rolled it out for myself and it makes logging in _incredibly_ fast tangled.org/jola.dev/lat...

Proposal from @bad-example.com to add STAR to DASL. Any concerns or issues? It looks pretty damn well motivated to me :) tangled.org/dasl.ing/das...

STAR could be the serialization format for atproto spaces! maybe! the v1 format isn’t finalized yet, so now is a great time to share feedback and help shape it!

PART TWO: All the other reasons i don't like CARs for atproto repo exports! In this one: ambiguities and inefficiencies. (the biggest problem is already hopefully getting fixed in the IETF draft though, yay!)

alright here it is, my hit-piece on CARs in atproto, with a big ecosystem survey

This incident has been resolved. status.bsky.app

Works with @microcosm.blue Constellation for part of it. Moves are written one record per user per game. Portable Game Notation PGN is used. Play at @checkmate.blue checkmate.blue

availability warning. everything fine so far and most microcosm services have automatic failover to cloud providers, so any impact should be minimal if anything happens 🤞

in a bleak world where LLMs threaten to drain all joy from software development (full disclosure: I vibed @svebcomponents/atproto & it sparked loads of joy) the atmosphere is such a fresh breath of air with a great ecosystem - shoutout to @microcosm.blue, @pds.dad & @pfrazee.com y'all are inspiring!

Thanks to a PR from @willem.dobs.nl, check.cirrus.earth now validates the CAR commit object signature using the @microcosm.blue verifier code.

Neat thing I just learned you can do: use com.bad-example.proxy.hydrateQueryResponse​ to hydrate blue.microcosm.links.getManyToMany calls, which is pretty neat of @microcosm.blue

This is mostly built on community infrastructure, it uses @microcosm.blue 's spacedust as its interaction firehose & constellations for showing you your likes. Thank you @bad-example.com! I am beyond excited about what the ATmosphere ecosystem means for the web!

It's been a fun week of figuring out the new jetstream sync engine but ALSO trying out @microcosm.blue Hubble at the same time. I set out with a mission to build a service to report follow counts and ended up working with them both. Check out my write up on my new @pckt.blog 50 Shades of Protocol.

Stalled just shy of 29 million so until @zzstoatzz.io wakes up to see what's up it's time to start the second test. Backfilling the entire social graph with @microcosm.blue hubble, ETA 24 hours.

ok yay (doesn't use bluesky appview, uses selfhosted slingshot + the public instances of @microcosm.blue (with plans to selfhost the rest later if i put this up anywhere...))

microcosm services remain healthy

ok im sick of waiting for apple to review the iOS app, so in the meantime if you like birds, see birds, and want to record your bird sightings then check out birds.place! it runs on free tier cloudflare and @microcosm.blue

We now have a dedicated feedback form and tracking board accessible from the footer of the site! It's powered by @userinput.app and @microcosm.blue. Leave a comment, provide a suggestion, or let us know what you want to see next... flushes.app/feedback

If you can, please help keep @microcosm.blue alive with a monthly donation. The work @bad-example.com does is invaluable, and this community and ecosystem wouldn't be what it is without their contributions and hard work:

@microcosm.blue 🤝🏼 @anew.social A huge huge thanks to @bad-example.com for helping us with this! We couldn't do it without your support!

If you've backfilled the network before, you probably noticed the 65k bridged accounts you couldn't sync. …until a week ago! Bridgy Fed's `getRepo` is now open, and served by Hubble!
