apropos of nothing, @emdashcms.com has native support for atproto, its plug-in marketplace is atproto-powered and any plugins that have been registered in time for EmDash v1.0 will get a lot of eyeballs on it. any atmospheric widget will do the trick.

I'm going to be launching something pretty big next week, which just happens to include a new atproto AppView, labeler, blob proxy, lexicons. It will have tens of thousands of users, most of whom won't even know they're using atproto, or have even heard of it.

Excellent piece by @seldo.com

I have been writing this post about the economics of open source, on and off, for 13 years. I wasn't expecting to end up at "Microsoft should send corporations a huge bill" but nothing else we've tried has worked.

Also the greatest breach of consent in human history. Not the most egregious, since it doesn’t directly cause bodily harm the way wars and enslavement do.
