The Bluesky protocol allows multiple social networks, each with its own management and review system, to communicate with other social networks through an open standard. Bluesky is used to create decentralized social networks. An “application” is any social network that makes use of the protocol.
The Bluesky initiative debuted The AT Protocol, a website for the protocol, on Tuesday. Additionally, a waitlist for the Bluesky app, a browser for the AT Protocol network, was made available.
Bluesky, a non-profit venture run by Twitter, was introduced in 2019 Jack Dorsey, who was Twitter’s CEO at the time. The project was abandoned until May 2022, when Dorsey left Twitter.
Twitter is funding a small independent team of up to five open source architects, engineers, and designers to develop an open and decentralized standard for social media. The goal is for Twitter to ultimately be a client of this standard. 🧵
