The new atproto platform offers an exciting new way to handle user data and identity in social-enabled apps, compared to the fediverse. With Personal Data Servers and domain-based identities, users can have ownership of their identity and data, making it easier to use multiple apps with the same account. This opens up possibilities for new social services to emerge, with the potential for monetization and VC interest. Atproto simplifies the process of building social apps and could lead to a new era of user-owned identity in social networking. The future looks promising for atproto, with potential for growth and innovation in the social app space.
