The Authenticated Transfer (AT) Protocol is at the heart of Bluesky, a decentralised social media platform that aims to give users more control over their data and online contacts.
Bluesky is different from other centralised platforms because it has an architecture that lets various providers work together. This means that users can switch services without losing their content or social connections.
The AT Protocol makes it possible for different computers, called Personal Data computers (PDS), to talk to each other easily. This design makes sure that users aren't tied to just one service provider. This makes social media more open and focused on the user.
You can learn more about Bluesky's decentralised framework by getting involved with its community and exploring its open-source tools.
