This makes me unreasonably happy, so much love and appreciation for you both.

I’m currently implementing this kind of behavior using TrustGraph in 🐈MewsFeed, a cat-themed Holochain microblog app.

… which provides raw information that can inform the server assembling my feed — that is to say, the raw data about what I am interested in is separate from the algorithm that is assembling my feed — and like other atproto layers, there can be healthy competition among the feed creation algorithms.

For example, when I follow Why, or later, when I visit his profile, I could choose to follow his posts more/less enthusiastically in certain topic areas, eg:
- IPLD 99%
- hair -100%
- all other topics 90%

I realized I may have dove into my own rabbit hole without giving appropriate context. So to be very concrete about how protocols like these are helpful for systems like bsky, they could express:
- likes
- blocks
- vouches
- follows
- any of the above *in a specific topic area*

@pfrazee.com perhaps the “semantic” field could both:
1) link to the “labels” you’re creating for moderation
2) if you want a fixed vocabulary, rather than freeform, you could use something like:
- social.bsky.vocab.vouch
- social.bsky.vocab.follow
- social.bsky.vocab.block

Tagging @why.bsky.team and @pfrazee.com — as we’ve batted around some of this stuff in various places.

I’m also a big fan of @golda.bsky.social’s protocol mentioned in this thread, which we collaborated in the design of — TrustGraph is currently focused on its #holochain implementation, but ultimately would like to support this as well as IETF Reputons.

3/3 Finally, what if by uniting our networks in this way we could snowball into an effectively larger, deeper, more powerful _network effect_ than today's legacy social networks and chat apps?

2/3 What if this self-sovereign, user owned and controlled, privately sharable trust network could become the backbone to unite our many disparate decentralized web apps and platforms?
comment in response to

I wrote a few tweets on this in 2019:
1/3 What if all our decentralized apps and platforms could share trust/ratings/attestation information, in the form of portable cryptographically signed claims?

I would love to see Bluesky adopt any of these, or a variation thereof. This would not only be powerful within the Bsky ecosystem, but also kick start a powerful interop opportunity with other communities/ social networks to share self-sovereign-identity based trust networks in an interoperable way!

- source: the rating entity
- target: entity being rated
- semantic: tag, topic of rating, etc
- scalar: numeric “amount”

Hm, several projects — IETF Reputons, TrustGraph, TrustNet have all (independently AFAICT) arrived at roughly the same conclusion for minimal atomic sharing of reputation/ratings info:

Oh yeah def pull it in and would love to chat about interop. TrustGraph is designed to be a reputation interchange!

Hi @golda! Great to see your progress on trust graphs!
What I was really looking for was lib code to build bsky adaptors upon — and in that case the answer is the official libs:

Update: if you’re looking for a TS lib to build your app on, you probably want the (MIT licensed) official packages: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@atproto/api

Correct: zero blockchain, hella merkle

Yeah and their models will get increasingly awesome as 1) they release larger ones and 2) the open source community works its magic. Feels like the answer to the Q you asked on T years ago to which I said GPTNeo and you said Nah. 😂
I’m down to help with this project, feel free to ping when ready.

I generated 40 T-shirt ideas for my yoga studio using GPT4, and sent the best ones to the owner.
Here’s my fav 😂

If you know of any others or I missed any that meet these 2 criteria, please let us know in comments!
Also encouraging other creators to add open source licenses if so inspired!

That one is Skylight. The reusable code I mentioned is mostly here:

If you’re not committed to a tech already, check out typesense, they’re pretty amazing.

Microblog/micropost are already the standard terms to encompass short posts on twitter, mastodon, etc: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microblogging
comment in response to

Hmm how about “micropost”? Says exactly what it is. Kinda long, but so is weblog. If people want to shorten it, it can become “micro” or even “mic”.

Definitely posts. Just put the user into the search box.
