The AT Protocol Harkens An Old Web Ethos (Or: how the other fediverse is developing)

cross-posted from: lemmy.zip/post/70749935

An interesting blog post about how the AT protocol has it’s own cool little ecosystem next to the fediverse.

It’s really interesting how the way ATproto is both more and less as every service must follow a strict format to interact with others using the same format.

Like, ATproto has more variety than the fediverse, but the way they interact is a bit more strict, which means that a post from a lemmy analogue wouldn’t show up on bluesky, but it also means that each platform often seems more polished.
