this one is billionaire funded tho i pay three billion micro-cents every month to keep it up

😭💜

🌌 constellation is lexicon-agnostic: it crawls for ALL links it can find in the atproto firehose. so it automatically started indexing all verifications as soon as they shipped, without me doing anything — no backfill needed. super exciting that @aviva.gay is using it for deer.social !!!

@aviva.gay introduced the ability for users to appoint their own "Trusted Verifiers" to their bluesky alt client, deer.social 1. Amazing turnaround, less than a week after we launched verifications! 2. This is a great way to explore new approaches to hard problems 3. Atproto is all about interop

this is really cool

i never ever regret setting up metrics exporters, configuring metrics scrapers, and setting up metrics dashboards and i never ever ever want to

custom-verifiers-v0.deer-social.pages.dev choose your own verifiers

relay’s back up! jetstream’s back up! relay.fire.hose.cam jetstream.fire.hose.cam @tools jetstream demo:

Hey #Toronto, Tell me your favourite independent book stores? New and used!

but who verifies the verifier? oh constellation knows: constellation.microcosm.blue/links?target... bsky.app is verified by - @orbytapp.bsky.social - @lily-t-witch.bsky.social aaaaaaaand by - @bsky.app (yep, they verified themselves)

i like when traces of bsky team’s atproto development are just out in the open but not easy to spot until you know what to look for. the first verifications were published about a week ago, and you can see the little rises over that week as they tested it out while building :)
