I want to live in a reality where billionaire tech oligarchs can’t influence global elections to the point that every “guy who’s pro human rights” vs “guy who wants to build mega prisons, chop down rainforests, and cut gov programs so rich schmucks can buy their second yacht” is always a 50/50 split

You can click on feeds and media in a quote post, why can’t you also click on the @‘s in a quote post without first going into the post?

I love seeing new social apps on ATproto And the best part is seeing unique apps that are specifically built for the communities and countries those apps serve

Check out oso.social an amazing new addition to the Atmosphere coming from @waag.org in the Netherlands. We’re delighted to have contributed to its inception. The future of social media won’t be one app to replace X or Instagram but a multitude of apps that work together. waag.org/en/article/w...

Farm workers in WA State are harvesting cosmic crisp apples. They spend their days going up and down ladders harvesting this delicate fruit. They worry about weather as they must finish the harvest before temperatures drop below freezing, the crop could be ruined. #WeFeedYou

Don’t forget that spooky season is right around the corner! Which means you should pin and like the Halloween feed! It ranks posts based on who your social circle, thanks to a new feature from @graze.social! Check it out & see what your friends are posting for the best holiday of the year 🐈‍⬛ 🎃 👻

Pumpkins get from the fields to our homes for #Halloween Jack-o'-lanterns thanks to the labor of farm workers like these Moorpark CA farm workers who load each pumpkin by hand into the large cardboard box before shipping to cities ahead of Halloween. #WeFeedYou

Also this is another huge reminder that we need to build a thriving ecosystem of VIDEO content on the atmosphere Y’all, this more than anything is where we need to get the ball rolling yesterday

I suspect a lot of Atmosphere apps are going to benefit from this It would also be great to see a standardized “App Store” framework that people could submit their own apps to so that Bluesky doesn’t have to necessarily decide which apps you see and don’t see

60 yr old "Martin" harvests #Halloween pumpkins in Ventura county for min. wage. "The work involves very heavy pumpkins, which takes a serious toll on my back. There's often large orders to fill, so we have to start early and often there's no set time to leave work." #WeFeedYou

I loved Mass Effect when I played it, and it's sad to see the inspired teams that put it together no longer able to tell incredible stories.

This post is unavailable.

I really wish that Letterboxd was on the Atmosphere, because could you imagine a Bluesky feed that shows you posts about films that ranks those posts based on the movies you've rated on the app? You should seriously consider doing that @popfeed.social

In these frightening times, UFW staff is out in the fields talking to workers and sharing know your rights info including these "red cards." We're also watching for ICE activity on rural roads and sharing guidance with both union and non-union farm workers.

Vote early. This election is critical and it's essential that every vote count. If you live in a state with early voting, vote now instead of worrying if your ballot made it there in time. #VOTE

"Leo" sent this pic from the cosmic crisp apple harvest. "This apple is very delicate & must be cut carefully at the stem. Quality is a must or you could be fired. The average worker picks six 900lb bins in an 8 hr day, but there are workers who make much less." #WeFeedYou

We need this for other digital media like purchased movies

Culture Crave 🍿@culturecrave.co

A US lawmaker has announced plans to introduce a new bill that would give gamers ownership of the games they buy 🎮 The Power To The Players Act would require publishers to make games playable offline before shutting down their servers

Random thought, but it would be neat to have the ability to quote post multiple posts at a time, the same way we can embed multiple images in a single post
