This is the best introduction to how AT Proto actually works, written in very clear and approachable language, that Iβve seen so far (and it seems like @mackuba.eu is regularly updating it).
Please give it a read!

My "Introduction to #ATProto" blog post that I've been working on for some time is ready π It goes through things like records, lexicons, DIDs, then PDS/AppView etc. and how it all works together. Let me know if anything is wrong!
More parts later, with the Fedi comparisons & misconceptions etc.
Walkthrough of the various parts and concepts in Bluesky's AT Protocol (ATProto), the types of servers involved and how it all fits together
