Many of my colleagues will be in Vienna the coming week so this week I spent some time prepping for that.

While I strongly favor ActivityPub, this week I took some time to learn more about ATProto and I don't hate it. The thing I most appreciate is that people are building things that are not just slightly different implementations of microblogging platforms. With my long standing sharepa project, I'm now looking into adding ATProto support as well and looking forward to figuring out how to accomplish seamless interop.
