Like, if I want to stand up a chat server or blog or media server or web board that uses ATProto, how do I do that? What software do I download?
If I want to use AP, there are like seventeen packages I can use based on whatever flavor of experience I want. Each one provides a whole-ass website.
Sure, maintaining your own site is a pain in the ass, but that's always gonna be true regardless of what software you use.
