Bluesky and atproto seem to be built to be hackable.

Someone in the community recently built a searchable directory of Bluesky "Starter Packs" (which are a way for a user to publish a set of interesting people & feeds to follow, primarily to help newcomers bootstrap their experience):

Dan Abramov posted about it earlier today, saying he liked it and:

"the fact that it can be done in the ecosystem is awesome. let the ecosystem cook" [1]

And maybe more poignantly:

"seeing random projects pop up in the atproto ecosystem reminds me just how much public web common were stifled by social companies closing down their APIs. an entire landscape of tools given up on and abandoned" [2]
