- Reposted by microcosm: atproto building blocksWe've been given an amazing opportunity with our round of funding to build out the next generation of the social web. Today, we're starting an experiment in paying that forward. Introducing Graze Grants, a project to help get other ATProto projects off the ground.
- made it to 4 billion and counting!
- ope four billion just happened. four billion atproto social interactions indexed on a raspberry pi next to me, which you’re free to query at constellation.microcosm.blue
- Reposted by microcosm: atproto building blocks🌌 constellation is lexicon-agnostic: it crawls for ALL links it can find in the atproto firehose. so it automatically started indexing all verifications as soon as they shipped, without me doing anything — no backfill needed. super exciting that @aviva.gay is using it for deer.social !!!
- @aviva.gay introduced the ability for users to appoint their own "Trusted Verifiers" to their bluesky alt client, deer.social 1. Amazing turnaround, less than a week after we launched verifications! 2. This is a great way to explore new approaches to hard problems 3. Atproto is all about interop

- full-scale indie atproto relay is live and public! get yer non-bluesky-owned firehose here! relay.fire.hose.cam jetstream soon, i’ve just done enough nginx iptables for one day.
- custom verifiers on deer.social are partially powered by constellation! 🌌
- custom-verifiers-v0.deer-social.pages.dev choose your own verifiers

- we’ve (manifesting myself into plural) got a relay up!

- 🌌 constellation is really struggling at the moment, digging in but it might take a minute, the pi is mostly unresponsive
- 🌌 constellation will have a few hopefully-brief interruptions as switch it to run under systemd (instead of tmux heh) once it's done, it should be able to auto-restart on crash, and start automatically if the raspberry pi reboots!
- constellation is now running on a raspi 5 ⚡️⚡️
- microcosm api is up but the index is a bit behind: the jetstream consumer panicked on too-many-open-files (classic). might be down for a few moments soon for restart with higher ulimit!
- constellation is catching up after being offline for a bit — sorry for the disruption!

- just hit a few bumps redeploying Constellation, should be stable now! this deploy adds a background task to automatically start backups on a configurable interval — 6h on the public instance.
- Added to Constellation today: backups! The public instance with 1B+ links can now survive a disk failure! This also opens the door to sharing with other folks who want to host an instance without needing to start from empty. Get in touch if that’s you 💾
- constellation has officially indexed one billion links 📈
