For a lot of us, atproto projects are some of the biggest (most users, most publicized, most code written, etc.) projects we’ve ever done. For me, it’s also my first time working in open source (ironically, someone asked me to be more open about that)

If you can help, pls check out open issues.

I know not everyone thinks highly of atproto around these parts, but please don’t let that get in the way of welcoming a fellow rustacean into the open source world 🦀

Sharing for anyone else not familiar with AT Protocol:

The AT Protocol is an open, decentralized network for building social applications.

FAQ Why not use ActivityPub?:

Account portability and Scalability through activity aggregation

Bluesky uses AT Protocol. The connected network/platform is called the Atmosphere.

Bluesky Social has pledged to transfer the protocol's development to a standards body. - Wikipedia

I didn't see any mention of other software/platforms using AT protocol on the protocol website or Wikipedia.

Not sure that is a good name from a search or brand recognition perspective.

Yeah, I thought the same. Pretty bad name.
