A Fireside Chat on Resonant Computing: Why we wrote the manifesto and where we go from hereGreat Hall South · Conference Day #2
Resonant Computing manifesto co-authors Mike Masnick (Bluesky board member, Techdirt) and Alex Komoroske (Common Tools) discuss why they felt compelled to articulate an alternative vision for computing—one that's private, plural, and prosocial. They'll explore what resonance actually means in practice, why the ATProto community is uniquely positioned to build this future, and talk about the infrastructure work to make it real.

Who owns the group chat? Building collaborative spaces on ATProto
10:30 AM - 11:00 AM
Traditional social platforms centralize control of community spaces—the platform owns your group, your members, and your data. On ATProto, ownership, governance, and moderation become explicit design decisions. This talk explores building shared resources on a decentralized protocol—from data synchronization to governance models—drawing from real experience building community features and examples from other ATProto apps.
