Description
The AT Protocol, developed by Bluesky, represents an innovative decentralized social protocol aimed at transforming the current landscape of social applications. With interoperability and data ownership as its foundation, it deviates from the traditional, centralized social networking models by placing control of data and identity directly in users' hands. This allows for seamless movement across applications while preserving connections and content. The protocol supports a broad spectrum of social media functionalities such as following, posting, and real-time updates within a privacy-focused and user-driven decentralized framework. This project is a significant stride towards the decentralization of social networking, aligning with the Web3 vision of a decentralized internet that amplifies user control and freedom. The AT Protocol introduces a federated network model, incorporating elements from advanced decentralized technologies to provide a simplistic, swift, and open network. Key features include account portability, enabling users to transfer their accounts without data loss; algorithmic choice, granting users control over their online experience; a schema-based interope...
