#2Would love for more platforms to embrace the AT protocol.
Re: Introduction to AT Protocol
#3Would be great to have a new modern alternative to the E-mail standard that is usable for both public and private messaging.
Re: Introduction to AT Protocol
#4Been pondering for my team to use it for our product’s timeline. I don’t particularly want our user base to be Bluesky, but it’d be good to have support for the protocol, and control over the system.
Have there been any products go embraced this? Or is it like ActivityPub where basically the whole thing is Mastodon.

For now mostly just small things that the Bluesky dev/user community is playing with, but check out e.g. Tangled which is meant to be a GitHub alternative on ATProto: https://tangled.sh

I'm working with some people on permissioned spaces for atproto (spec and pds changes). This will unlock a ton of use-cases not possible today
Working Group is forming this fall, we'll be at IETF, Montreal in Nov
Also building one such platform that needs permissioned spaces, if you want to follow along
https://github.com/blebbit/atproto

Off the top of my head, there are also WGs for E2EE messaging, web monetization, and geo.
Lot's of infra getting built this year

email has come a long way with SPF, DKIM, and DMARC, and its cool that anyone can purchase a slice of the global namespace that is transferable between providers, but AFAIK the biggest road block to using email in a distributed self sovereign way is reputation and getting your messages delivered to google and outlook users partially because of the nonstop spam.
Do we have any new tools to prevent spam in a post-email world? Or can we just use the current email structure with some better GUI around PGP and Hashcash and force anyone who wants to send a message to burn 10 cents worth of electricity ?
I'm curious what you're looking for in an email standard ?

We might be able to do this with permissioned spaces. There are instances or use-cases where you want an outside entity to make changes to a user's repo
- email / inbox [or @mail since it is @atproto :]
- unsubscribe from email
- notifications / rsvp
The cool thing is that we could use the stackable moderation infra for dealing with bad actors

#9I'll save you a click: it's unrelated to the Hayes AT commands [1].
