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 can’t believe it’s only been two months since we launched! It's been so much fun

"A really clear, and very simple, early example of how we learned that lesson was when we changed the size of the box that people used to type in just to create the posts on their sites. We made the box a little bit taller, mostly for aesthetic reasons. Within a few weeks, we’d found that posts on sites like Gawker had gotten longer, mostly because the box was bigger. This seems obvious now, years after we saw tweets get longer when Twitter expanded from 140 characters to 280 characters, but at the time this was a terrifying glimpse at how much power a couple of young product managers in a conference room in California would have over the media consumption of the entire world every time they made a seemingly-insignificant decision."

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.

Thanks, yeah this is something we’d eventually need to address. I’ll try to make time and have a look later this week

Collections or URL + notes would be more useful, the URL card alone wouldn’t be much different from a Leaflet link embed (at least for now). Getting notified about any of these would be great

So many awesome references shared in this session, I created with a Semble list to collect them!

Semble links as "mentions" feels like a fun new pattern to explore (could also be automated to a degree)

We use PNGs and provide various sizes based on platform and screen size. There's a good tool which automates most of it. I also remember having trouble with the Tangled logo before modifying it

we're too quick to mistake `what i know how to easily model' for `what is' and even `what should be'.
