We're getting to spend more time on protocol again, which has me happy. Not just adding capabilities, but fixing annoyances and simplifying things.
There's a few changes we can make that will make the stack more obvious, and get closer to that goal of "it's just http and json"

Okay: Starter Packs. This is kind of like invites, but
1. It's a link you can share in the groupchat
2. The link has a really good app-install flow
3. You get a reliable notification when it's used
4. You choose accounts & feeds that the new users will autofollow/pin

Regarding the "bridge to Threads."
It's opt-in, it works via a kind of bot created by a user, and there's a labeler available to hide bridged users if you're not interested.

How many posts would you expect to work for a self-thread? Like... just throwing a number out there, 14?

All video apps are just fancy UIs to ffmpeg

A video game where the game itself is a character and gets mad at you for playing the game wrong and takes over the plot trying to fight with you over the game design

From today's Pragmatic Engineer, one bit of Bluesky history that I love and wish more people knew --
@jay.bsky.team pushed hard to make us an independent company and was incredibly prescient in doing so

I think people know? but for those who don't
The "birds aren't real" conspiracy is a satirical performance piece by Peter McIndoe to highlight the risks of misinformation online. He did a number of video sketches that are pretty funny

DMs on Bluesky will not be "end-to-end encrypted" until we are able to do some more protocol work.
We have very careful access controls within our systems.
If you're extremely privacy conscious, I'd recommend using Bluesky DMs to share your Signal accounts!
