In the future we might use this data for more things eg. suggesting communities to join based on your Bluesky interactions but no concrete plans for that yet!

The AT Protocol allows applications like Frontpage to interoperate with other data on the network but right now we don't use it for much.
Today we use this to populate your frontpage profile/avatar from your Bluesky profile.

Good question, I don't think we have that written down yet!
Right now you use the same account to login to both Bluesky and Frontpage. All of your data is stored in the same place as your Bluesky data.

If you've tried to create a post or comment or vote in the last 15 or so hours it should show up once we roll out the fix

We rewrote a piece of our infrastructure from scratch to solve this and it's now live 🎉
The posting experience should be greatly improved and we have more improvements to come. As always please tag us if you run into any errors

Head to frontpage.fyi and enter your handle, you'll be redirected to a Bluesky login page (your atproto host) where you can login and grant access. That should be it! Any questions just shout 😎

Not yet, we only do off-protocol global moderation right now
We're looking to run our own labeler and report service specifically for Frontpage records
Cross-app moderation is something we're keeping an eye on

Database backups
We'll be snapshotting our database at regular intervals so that, data loss was to happen again, we're able to restore it much more quickly without losing any data

Tooling around migrations
We were being super "agile" by just pushing migrations to prod without testing them for data loss, going forward we'll be testing these out locally first.
