In German they’re called “Kichererbsen” aka “Giggle peas”

And chickpeas in English!

We’ve talked about Lexicon embeds - showing other Lexicons in bsky posts kind of like an interactive preview.

It’s likely that @leaflet.pub will experiment with blocks of other Lexicons.

Growing other apps and not putting all our hopes & dreams into bsky is kind of the point ;)

There are people with many many labelers subscribed, and their screenshots are jarring to many!

And yes, whether for fun or for group filtering or for serious moderation use cases, all the labeler stuff is opt in to show, and even then each user can toggle to not see individual labels.

Yep, because none of them did use different ones when I started!

So blacksky description needs updating, Red Dwarf needs adding and that it is "appview-less" etc

Not too late to have them make a “Quip” lexicon…
November 10, 2025 at 8:40 PM
I started a forum wiki page to collect these things that is already stale ;)

Need to add Red Dwarf and others here discourse.atprotocol.community/t/alternate-...
November 10, 2025 at 8:37 PM
Yes that is what Blacksky has up and running.

No appview required is Red Dwarf reddwarf.app by @whey.party source code here tangled.org/@whey.party/...
November 10, 2025 at 8:37 PM
Awesome. Come join the forum discourse.atprotocol.community and I’ll add you to the Vancouver Locals group and we can jam on this together

NAT, lack of IPv6, low cost / free tier cloud services, and mobile first computing.
November 10, 2025 at 8:00 PM
Yep! These types of capabilities are just getting started in operating systems.

And of course, we “assume” code signed apps are safe.

App owners on bsky - an app did or even a developer did - are some interesting directions.

I’ll make a new post in the forum that clearly highlights #ATProto_BER community day

@tgoerke.bsky.social we should figure out a place go in the evening for food / drink / conversation

I was in this font of the month club for a couple of years.

My main font use case is mini event images / posters on top of Unsplash. Very lame 😜

@chadkoh.com do you know of something Tokyo centric?

@borisanthony.net spends his time in Nagano I think but might also know.

I think that an ATProto PDS could host an interface that exposed data as a solid pod. The other way around would be harder.
