not yet and i won’t be really back in the data before this week but i’ll get to the bottom of it!

oof map type is going to complicate lexicon-unaware canonical-link-source defining, or i guess just make it a small step worse

(i accept that people want this instead of arrays but)

a chart showing non-bluesky atproto apps gaining popularity in recent months

I have something to add to the Wretched Topic discourse: non-bsky apps are growing in popularity

hmm. UFOs statistics can’t really be used to trace anything like a user journey, just per-collection nsid statistics down to hourly granularity. user ids get hashed on their way into the hyperloglog.

it can show eg. bsky follows specifically though, for looking at high level correlations

@anew.social is doing amazing work here with @ap.brid.gy and more

The week that included atmosphereconf was the first time breaking 100 (non-bluesky) lexicon groups with >10 active users in a week! There are a lot of atmosphere apps and people *are using them*.

data: UFOs. (I'll get an interactive version of these charts on the site eventually)

Since bluesky charts are going around again, here's some about non-bluesky atproto activity that I had buried in the middle of my talk.

1. Users: 2025 slowed, then recent growth. the atmosphere is *small*. it's *early*.

2,3. Development activity: constant steady growth

user growth follows dev

Reflections on AtmosphereConf A reflection on AtmosphereConf, understanding this network as a subculture, joy, and what "We Can Just Do Things" actually means

My reflections on an amazing atmosphereconf

On how the atmosphere can be understood as a subculture, what the holdfast is, and what We Can Just Do Things means

gotcha, i think ext4 is supposed to do ok here

putting `RUST_LOG=lsm_tree=debug` in front of your command (or as an env variable) might get some more info out from fjall

@fjallrs.bsky.social idk if the error there hints at anything (or if corruption after power loss is expected)

(ufos keeps a number of recent incremental filesystem snapshots just in case one gets a bad state, but i haven’t needed that yet)

hmm in general i think a power cut isn’t supposed to be able to corrupt a db either (but i might be incorrect)

what filesystem are you using?

are you pointing multiple domains to the same PDS? i think that’s generally discouraged

i think they get treated as different domains

new PDSls backlinks page
you can now directly link to a group: pds.ls/at://did:plc...

np! and i think we probably agree about client app-side data handling :)

hmm, i’m not sure i follow. the context of the post is explicitly server-side atproto data sync, maybe that wasn’t clear. all the existing sync utilities are about the same as rolling your own in terms of where the data lives (have to be self-hosted)

but i might be missing what you meant

fwiw, i do a periodic filesystem-level snapshot (btrfs) for ufos (fjall) and then resync that to the nas, for online-ish backups

im not sure how unsafe this is, but it has worked every time i’ve restored from it

Leaflet Pro: power tools for publishers - Leaflet Lab Notes Lab Notes 025: launching v1 of Leaflet Pro, our paid plan for writers, with publication analytics and lots more planned!

Okay "Leaflet PRO(se)" isn't *official*, but gets at something important — we're building for writers!

The whole publishing process should be fun & easy; tools shouldn't get in your way

From instant drafts at leaflet.pub/new to free custom domains, we aim to add delight & remove obstacles ✨

Badger Badger Badger A short write up about what Bailey had around his neck at #AtmosphereConf 2026

As promised, here's a quick write up of how my eink badge from @pimoroni.com that I wore at #AtmosphereConf worked.

omg ahaha that’s uh, not how it looked when i was writing!! hmm. paging @leaflet.pub

(the footnotes were at the end of the article in the view i had, didn’t change any theme defaults since footnotes were added (yay footnotes!))

thanks Paul! i was a little unsure if i was hitting the mark on this one (too much assumed vs overexplained) so this is very nice to hear :)

🔥🔥🔥

The Official Announcement ™️

i'm super stoked about this. big thanks to everyone involved!

if you want a say in the long term design of atproto, this is the place! hop in the mailing list and start participating. we'll be sending some messages in there soon

Published it!

Shorter version of this post is just this:

Kicking off the ATP Working Group at the IETF - AT Protocol The Authenticated Transfer Protocol working group has been created at the IETF. Now that we have a charter, we are looking forward to participation from the broader ATP ecosystem.

Pleased to announce that an Authenticated Transfer Protocol (ATP) working group has been created at the IETF!

Grateful to everybody who participated in the BoF and chartering process. Details on next steps and how to get involved inside.
