plyr.fm is an audio streaming platform built on [ATProto](https://atproto.com), the open protocol behind [Bluesky](https://bsky.app) and [BlackSky](https://blacksky.community). sign in with your [Atmosphere](https://atproto.com) account and start listening — if you have a Bluesky handle, you're already in.

## what you get

- **stream music** from independent artists who own their data
- **like, comment, and build playlists** — all stored in your personal data repo
- **timed comments** — leave reactions at specific moments in a track
