Tony Schneider, CEO of Blue Sky, described the Blue Sky app as an 'on-ramp' or 'lobby' to the broader AT Protocol ecosystem. He sees the app as a way to introduce users to the concept of interoperable social networks and the diverse applications being built on the protocol.
“I see the the Blue Sky app and the product as enabling the atmosphere. It's an on-ramp or maybe a lobby to the atmosphere.”
“It's just a great way to get lots of people in, get people exposed to the idea and then realize as you use the product, oh, there's other things here. This isn't just a microblogging app.”
