Twitter videos can be embedded on Lemmy by linking directly to the mp4 file hosted on https://video.twimg.com/amplify_video/.

For Bluesky videos, I found this potentially relevant GitHub thread, but the example links provided don't seem to embed on Lemmy.

Is there an equivalent way to embed Bluesky videos on Lemmy?

Do you think this action is justified or was it exaggerated?

Version 2.0 did not arrive and instead version 1.100 of Bluesky arrived.

On this occasion, Kamala Harris used her own Web Domain compared to Barack Obama who for now uses the nickname under the .bsky.social umbrella

What Brown experienced is familiar to any former Twitter/X user gathering their bearings on the young and decidedly more earnest social network Bluesky: a distinct humor-detection issue. Some users are unable to decipher jokes, or they are deliberately trying to miss the point to make a different one. Many Bluesky users migrated over from X, where the top DOGE who did Nazi-like salutes on television is live-tweeting the destruction of American infrastructure. That’s a different and much more serious problem. Still, the seeming obliviousness-slash-self-seriousness of many Bluesky users is grating when you’re not used to it.

This post is a blogpost version of a recent talk that Daniel Holmgren gave at AtmosphereConf (March 2025).

AT Protocol (or atproto) is a protocol for creating decentralized social applications.

It's not the first protocol with that aim to exist. In the history of decentralized social media protocols, atproto takes a unique approach which is still deeply influenced by technologies and movements that came before it.

The phrase “atproto ethos” often comes up during our protocol design discussions. It's a fuzzy term, but we use it to refer to the philosophical and aesthetic principles that underlie the design of the network.

In this post, we'll distill that ethos. First, we look at the movements in technology that have most directly influenced atproto.Then, we pull out the core innovations that atproto brought to the table. Finally, we highlight some opinionated ways of thinking that influenced the design.
