Pro-tip if you're a Tangled newbie: migrating knots and spindle on your Tangled PDS before building Bobbin?

Remember that Bobbin "is only a glorified edge index, in the graph theory sense. Additionally it has a record cache, re-filled on demand. All other data that Bobbin serves comes live from PDSes & knots."

You want to first nixery bao proxy spindle with AppRole credentials, then xrpc your punchcard via ATProto. The docs explain all of this clearly, so be sure to read them thoroughly.

the blogpost about bobbin is an engineering deep dive. you don't need to know any of this to use tangled.

Knots? Spindle? Bobbin?

And they say skeuomorphism is dead.
