Atproto Vienna@atproto.wien

Based in Vienna, our community is themed around open social web protocols, with a focus on the Atmosphere. We meet up regularly to explain and showcase how the Atmosphere works, share community projects, demo what we are building and discuss open social alternatives.

We welcome all atproto enthusiasts, builders, designers, researchers and everyday users of the Atmosphere, whether you live in Vienna or are just passing through.

Our shared interest in building and connecting alternatives to closed and centralized social tools goes beyond just the atmosphere and we're happy to share the initiatives of other decentralized and federated social platforms and their integrations with the Atmosphere.

We value the ideals of an open web, where users become owners of their identities and data. The Atmosphere puts people in control of their identity and data and moves us away from walled gardens and vendor lock-in.

Meeting in person makes it easier to learn from each other, find collaborators and grow a local scene around an open social web.

Our meetups are open to all and generally take place at the Metalab, Rathausstraße 6, 1010 Wien. Between meetups you can find us on Roomy and Colibri.

Agendas are published ahead of each meetup and recaps follow on our blog. You can also see upcoming and past meetups and their agendas and recaps on the events page.

We aim to be welcoming to all and for our meetups and online discussions to be respectful and for our members to feel safe within our spaces. We therefore ask you to read our community's values and guidelines.
