The Atmosphere needs more drawbridges. - Meet folks where they are, don't make them migrate - Augment their environments in useful ways - Make it easy to make them publish to the Atmosphere.

Just released an early preview of Zemble, a @zotero.org plugin for @semble.so! - Augment you Zotero library with all of the activity happening on Semble/Atmosphere. - Easily save and view items in Zotero on Semble. - Publish Zotero collections as Semble collections.

Some use cases: "Find my uncollected cards and file them into relevant (existing or new) collections" "Compare my collection X to [handle]'s collection Y. What are they reading that I'm missing?" "For this link, who else has saved it and what did they note about it?"

Today, we are launching the Semble API 🥳 🚀 Here's how to use it 👇️

This looks good but the "View publication" button stands out more than the blue primary buttons on the app, which throws me off while I'm scrolling the feed. I think a lighter or muted variant could be more subtle

It's official, @bsky.app has integrated @standard.site into the app! This means posts from @pckt.blog, @offprint.app, and @leaflet.pub get a richer treatment in the app. More details about how this works on the atproto blog: atproto.com/blog/standar...

Worked on Soma this week, a fun little experiment for @semble.so. Visualize your cards, see how much you have in common with others, and get a fingerprint of how you collect (volume, velocity, diversity, focus)

Replying to @burrito.space

if you're using something for free... IT CAN GO AWAY. the operator might be struggling, or not even interested really. and if you're running free infra, add a payment tier! make co-ops, run community infra together. but learn from the past: magical thinking does not make a healthy atmosphere.

Stayed up last night designing the slides, but more particularly this one #atmosphereconf

In modern computing, the split isn’t between power users and regular users. Increasingly, you’re either a power user or a disenfranchised user.

My take on the "explaining atproto" discourse is that all the UX/filesystem/etc metaphors are still very verbose and that you can explain the same idea in a lot less words: It separates data from apps, so any app can use data from any other app. That fits in a tweet, with other sentences around it.

Stoked to launch the first @aetheros.computer app from our docs suite today! PitchDeck is an atproto app that lets you create presentations and share them on the web or in person. It includes a presenter mode with keyboard/swipe support, a synced laser pointer, speaker notes and a built-in timer.

I think we underestimate the power of user interfaces (and thus apps) and how such power is concentrated in the hands of the few who are able to produce such interfaces.

So many awesome references shared in this session, I created with a Semble list to collect them! semble.so/profile/rone... Semble links as "mentions" feels like a fun new pattern to explore (could also be automated to a degree)
