Show HN: Trust-gated developer communities with portable identity (AT Protocol)

Hi HN — I've been working on Falcon, a developer collaboration platform built around portable identity instead of server ownership. The core idea: communities shouldn't disappear when a platform, server, or admin does. Your identity and relationships should persist. This latest iteration moves Falcon into a service-oriented architecture and introduces a trust-gated access model tied to AT Protocol identities. What's new:

Identity-first access: entry to communities based on verified identity + trust signals, not invite links Trust service: prototype for reputation/relationship-based gating Gateway: auth + routing boundary for identity-aware services Real-time infra: JetStream-backed messaging layer in progress Mono-repo with bounded services: gateway, trust, messaging (SIV), client, protocol lexicons

The goal isn't "decentralization for its own sake." It's to test whether developer communities would coordinate differently if identity and membership weren't locked to a single platform like Discord or Slack. Still early:

prototype stage infra evolving quickly no production deployment yet

I'm a solo founder with 10 years of backend experience, building this because my community needs it. I'm especially looking for feedback from OSS maintainers, infra/protocol engineers, and teams running private dev communities. Main question: Would identity-portable, trust-gated communities actually change how dev groups collaborate — or is platform gravity still too strong?
