If you are interested in building on ATProtocol, one of the best places to start is the Discord (until we have an atproto native alt @blebbit.app)
https://discord.atprotocol.dev/
Of course the spec is good too, very easy read
When discord alternative?
I've been building Mikoto Platforms on https://github.com/mikotoIO/mikoto
Thats such a bummer, I was on the matrix dev chat for a while and it was good and helpful. I wonder why they changed it from that?
I don't think that Matrix chat was used much after the initial months, I've only really heard about it in legends... That Discord (the ATProto Touchers) is community-run.
What sorts of things can be built on the protocol?
It’s good at social-oriented apps - there’s obviously Bluesky, and many other smaller apps in the style of other platforms.
One of the most interesting projects is tangled.sh - a github-like using atproto for the social layer, which fits perfectly.
Anything "social" basically - the first ideas that come to people's minds are of course things like: GitHub but on ATProto, Instagram on ATProto, Tiktok on ATProto, Reddit on ATProto…
Why isn't there a Discord built on ATProto ? [Serious Question, wondering if there are trade-offs that make this especially annoying]
