This reminds me of pizza party cli app way back late 90s or early 2000

What browser?

How long does it normally take projects to get stars though? You're not going to have a project with 100+ stars overnight or even within a month, you have to promote the project?

Depends widely on the target audience. In my case, targeting Julia developers who want to package their applications into installers to reach 100 stars took 2 years - https://peacefounder.org/AppBundler.jl. If I were to target Python developers, I would have many more stars.

It depends on how much you promote your repo and how big it is. I know when my repo gets posted somewhere because I'll get a little burst of stars for a few days and then it'll calm down until it's posted somewhere again. Much larger repos will get stars at a more constant rate as they reach a critical liftoff velocity.

My most popular repo is reasonably niche, is 10 years old and has a bit over 40 stars and that's from pretty much no advertising.

Show up in person, she's still not convinced.

I can already see the Nextdoor post: "Watch out for this man who is knocking doors around 10th street! He knocked on mine claiming to be my nephew and even looked the part. Already called the police but they arrived late."

This seems useful for testing. I was wanting to create some ansible roles for things like packaging a lambda. One of the things it does is check s3 for an existing zip package. It would be nice to mock that in testing.

How many of these features that chrome offers have been fully flushed out and in a true working stable state? Google Chrome has a habit of pushing features out before they're really ready and Safari is usually on par with Firefox for features from what I have seen.

It's not a question of readiness or capability. It's an MBA with a spreadsheet explaining to a room full of people how much money Apple will lose if they allow X feature to work in Safari. This is user-negative behavior from a company that has so much money the best thing they can think of to do with it is to bank it offshore in a tax haven.

Conversly, there is an MBA at google saying how much money they can make for each extra piece of data they can extract off the user’s phone.

I agree an open web platform is good. But i also think some of the things added to the browser don’t belong in the browser. Face detection? i don’t need that.

I am much more partial to attempts to force apple to enable installing 3rd party apps than i am forcing them to bloat the browser with more ways for websites to monitize me.

You forgot to mention the long mustache your cartoon villain MBA is twisting while they sabotage Safari.


Crippling web apps is a user-positive behavior. It just so happens that user’s incentives and apple’s incentives are aligned.

I’ll ask the dual question: how many of the mobile safari checkmarks are fully fleshed out? Media Session has a check, but I have absolutely fought obvious Media Session implementation bugs in my own PWAs when designing for mobile safari

Are there any other AT protocol apps that aren’t derivatives of bluesky? By that I mean, not social media feed related, twitter clone.

Yep lots! Mine is a livestreaming service: https://stream.place

Also a great blogging platform: https://leaflet.pub

Here's a goal tracker: https://goals.garden

This one just dropped recently; it's 44 different atproto-related apps with a cyberpunk theme: https://www.aetheros.computer/

Lots others mentioned here: https://blueskydirectory.com/


AT conference in a couple of days. In Vancouver. Bet they are all there and the rest of the AT bunch.

Don’t know if people are building GitHub-like systems, offline-first app sync etc

Many devs reuse schema and write some twitter/bsky clone

Kind of search engine for my Blueaky likes

Gotta get off the timeline, germ has a messaging app, then there is Tangled and some more

We do Fortransky and Cobolsky now, got more ideas for the protocol than time :)


https://tangled.org/ <--- GitHub on ATProto

that's all I'm aware of

(edit) Oops, just saw that you mentioned it, confused by your first line then. Tangled is awesome!


i am currently working on a dropbox alternative: https://dropb.at

How do you plan on differentiating it from just a trivial setup of an FTP account that's mounted locally with curlftpfs and has files in a SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem?

good point, i havent considered this at all. its basically dead on arrival

Cool!

I've been using macOS since OS X Tiger and I wasn't aware of this feature.

yeah, OpenAI has its strengths but code generation is not one of them.


It's like reddit when Digg v4 happened
