I shouldn't be surprised… it was DNS
Currently getting a "Wrong DID returned from server." error when trying to update the handle on the new account 😬

this is the highest praise
I don’t know what this is about but that this problem would happen to you could not be less surprising. I tried to help.

If I have a Bluesky account with a custom URL as the username, and then I delete that account, am I screwed? Or can I re-use that URL by updating the DNS record?

I wasn't sure how I felt about the new iOS 26 design language at first, but it's starting to grow on me.
