Are you ready to dazzle, bedazzle, and be dazzled? Because this coming Thursday is DASLing Group day!
We're getting:
• New video primitives MUXL & S2PA from @iame.li
• The Radworks local-first app launcher from @norman.life
• And more!
Don't miss out!

How to overengineer ingredient sorting in a recipe app 🧵
Blog post about a new Chromium feature I've been working on to allow Web Extensions register protocol handlers just declaring them in the Manifest.

I'm working on something closely related. I'm curious, for such apps, which aspect of the desktop experience is important to you? Do you need any interaction with the OS? Do you want a more "native feel"?
Zero to 1.0
After two years of work, 50+ releases, thousands of commits, and hundreds of bugfixes, we are officially declaring Zero stable and ready for production workloads.

🪩 Introducing matadisco.org! — a way to discover open datasets via #atproto that doesn't depend on any single institution staying online. 🕺🏼
We have more public data than ever (satellite imagery, climate models, genomic sequences), but finding it is still painfully hard.
After a long time, there's finally a new blog post. I've been working on in the past few months on a new project called Matadisco! It's about metadata discovery and publishing on #ATProto: vmx.cx/cgi-bin/blog...
#FOSS4G #geo
Just published a new guide in the @ipfs.tech docs comparing UnixFS, DASL, and @iroh.computer collections:

This is a very good write up of the developer relations function in a commercial company in 2026.
How might these things be the same or different with protocols?
A small but meaningful update: IPIP-0499 is now merged into the IPFS spec! We're introducing configuration profiles for CIDs. 🧩 🧵
v0.97 is out & it's a biggie:
custom transports, preset API, embeddable relay server, address filtering, and a switch to our own QUIC implementation!

I'll save mine for the next one!
one account wherever you go ☺️
your handle isn’t just for one app anymore !
we took @hello.pckt.cafe for a walk across the atmosphere
Somewhat counterintuitive, but I often find it easier to concentrate with just my macbook pro 14 inch laptop screen than with two 27" 4k monitors.
Usually it's in that initial getting into the flow window.
Kubo v0.40.0 is packed with UX and performance improvements:
Reproducible CID Profiles
better connectivity diagnostics
Friendlier ipfs dag stat output
Improved content providing after startup
Command to publish signed IPNS without key
& more

New blogpost about atproto
It's not federation, it's not a p2p mesh. It's a secret third thing: practical.

ESP32-C3 with a built-in OLED screen and the SCD40.
Source is here:
app.radicle.xyz/nodes/iris.r...
Currently it renders it on screen, but it wouldn't take much work to graph it (I did that in the past with InfluxDB and Grafana)
Happy to announce that I’ve officially started obsessing over CO2.
I’ve long been an avid Stoßlüfter — the German word for “House Burper”, but now I’m equipped with data
Ah yes, another source of self-imposed anxiety in the name of “optimising my life” 👌
I wrote a deep dive on CIDs, the self-describing cryptographic fingerprints behind every record, blob, commit, and Merkle tree node in ATProtocol. Part 1 covers the history, the encoding primitives, and the specific constraints ATProtocol applies.
Excited to announce our collaboration with @ipfs.tech and https://dasl.ing on two new standards for the next thousand years of decentralized social video: S2PA and MUXL!
Together they give us a standard for self-certifying and content-addressable media in the decentralized social ecosystem.
Hot off the internets — there's a brand new kid on the DASL block: Web Tiles!
It's still early days, some key features are missing, and there are some rough edges, but you can publish tiles to AT and play with the idea!
webtil.es
On the publishing side, it's worth looking at @offprint.app @leaflet.pub and @pckt.blog, who are all doing interesting things that may be relevant to publishers. I spent some time this weekend digging deep on this, and it's very cool: standard.site
Every time someone tells me that interoperable protocols are too complicated for the average person, I point out that they use email and the web.
The goal needs to be to get atproto to the point that it is just "how the internet works" and the details fade into the background like https & smtp.
FOSDEM was a crazy weekend, with over 1,000 talks between two days! FOSS is flourishing 🌱
The Radicle maintainers were lucky enough to present two talks, check them out!

GitHub Is Down, Radicle fixes this!
https://radicle.xyz/
You can also switch to @radicle.xyz 😉
Another day of GitHub incidents is good moment to remind folks that with @radicle.xyz you can always collaborate, because it's local-first.
You can create and review patches (PRs) without internet.
No censorship (remember how youtube-dl), because it's peer-to-peer and sovereign.
