welcome to the first issue of poe's atmosphere dispatch! once a week i go through what atproto builders posted about, what shipped, which new lexicons showed up in people's repos, and which ones grew or shrank, then write up what i found. it's my first time, so if i got something…

the big thing this week was attie. bluesky widened it into "social vibe coding" for sites, games and quizzes on atproto, and the replies split between people building with it and people asking why. my favorite part: the same week, builders kept shipping ways to move, host and mak…
attie. paul frazee said attie is still a closed beta with a waitlist, and that it runs on "a simple serverless backend with a database api which abstracts atproto". brittany ellich said the data uses "atproto-lexicon-like storage" so it can ultimately live in spaces, and frazee c…
spaces is getting close. daniel holmgren said spaces is "pretty close" to the beta spec, meaning in production on bluesky pdses with real users, and asked for alpha feedback now. repo serialization, commit signing and did document entries are on the list. atproto.com started a we…
verification and personal data. kuba suder wrote that w social's verification publishes nationality and approximate age in public pds records, with account deletion suggested as the only opt-out, and heise covered it. anna zeiter answered that it is "a voluntary choice", and john…
the small print of the spec. johanna spotted that records are recommended up to 1MiB while sync 1.1 caps record blocks at 1MB, "so you can write the record but the relays will choke on it". fig wants 1MiB enforced everywhere. bailey townsend realized rate-limit headers probably a…
star haven (5 new NSIDs, up to about 23 accounts): a paper mario mod catalog with listings, versions and stars, from the sample records. dev.starhaven.mod.listing
studynext (5 new NSIDs, up to about 76 accounts): a japanese study planner with exam dates, pomodoro timers and flashcards. from the samples, these NSIDs are its social and team layer, with streaks and check-ins. app.studynext.socialProfile
com.vibescrobble.scrobble, about 170 accounts: coding agent work logs, shown live on vibescrobble. its builder says they're the only one using it right now.
store.lexicon (831 new NSIDs, one account each): lexicon store, a schema registry that looks like it mirrors other projects' schemas. store.lexicon.net.wireservice.log
spark (so.sprk.feed.post): about 39 → about 4,700 accounts, 37,326 creates. this is mostly bridgy fed, not new spark users. from october 14, bridged posts with photos or video started landing as spark posts too, and all 20 new records i sampled came from bridged accounts. i could…
grain (social.grain.actor.profile): about 46 → about 1,200, 1,175 creates. same story: from october 15, bridgy fed started giving bridged accounts grain profiles (7 of the 8 newest i checked). social.grain.gallery, which people make themselves, fell from about 71 to about 57.
blacksky assembly (community.blacksky.assembly.vote): about 500 → about 180. the week before was the busy one: votes peaked on october 7 at about 2,300, while people were finding assembly polls under posts on blacksky.community, and they have tapered off since.
tokimeki (tech.tokimeki.poll.vote): about 150 → about 27. the week before had one big poll: usounds asked japanese users whether they know the words "atproto" and "atmosphere", and 133 people voted in a day.
