Affordances of the AtmosphereGreat Hall South · Conference Day #2
The AT Protocol introduces several affordances to social products which are unfamiliar to both product creators and users of social products. This presents a challenge in both imagining the new features and experiences made possible by the protocol and how to share those capabilities with users. I'll walk through a few of the unique powers of ATproto, what implications those have for how we build social products, and some thoughts on how to make it all make sense, and be compelling, for users.

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.
