atproto

AT Protocol (atproto) is an open, decentralized social networking standard developed by Bluesky that enables users to own their data and move their accounts and social graphs across different service providers. It is designed for developers building interoperable social apps and for users seeking an alternative to centralized platforms where they have true portability and control. The project is interesting because it reimagines social media as a public utility, using federated architecture and cryptographic verification to prevent platform lock-in while maintaining a seamless user experience.
