I don't work for Bluesky and am in no way affiliated with Bluesky PBC, just FYI! Just a random user who sometimes builds stuff for the platform.

Soft launching my Keybase on atproto alpha: @keytrace.dev

Basically the identity verification system from keybase/keyoxide but storing the identity claims on your registry and signing them based on keys in mine.

It is not focused on PGP, but on making it possible for social apps to handle identity

The ever-brilliant @ripperoni.com set one up yesterday: @pronounpicker.ripperoni.com

Could be; I'm getting 401s in the console when I visit that page:

Much appreciated! Alas...

Here's a question. Say a service I've used ATProto OAuth to log into gets compromised, is there any way of revoking OAuth credentials?

I made a map of 3.4 million Bluesky users - see if you can find yourself!

bluesky-map.theo.io

I've seen some similar projects, but IMO this seems to better capture some of the fine-grained detail

Since the pronouns labeler is gone.

To put it politely, good goddamn riddance.
McSweeney going is excellent news. It doesn't fix any problems by itself, but it is the precondition for fixing those problems.

Did you know you can just build things?

bsky.app/profile/pron...
Click into this thread to choose your displayed pronouns
February 8, 2026 at 12:58 PM
Would be cool to actually be able to use that, just sayin'
February 8, 2026 at 3:46 PM
So bsky.team, about that pronouns field that's been languishing unused in the profile lexicon for months now...

I truly cannot think of anything more ignorant than criticising the work you're doing on here, you're a guiding light for many of us (myself very much included). 💚

Not yet, the last instance I was on is down now it seems so I have to totally rebuild who I follow 🫩
February 8, 2026 at 2:56 AM
Hm! Wonder why...
February 8, 2026 at 12:33 AM
Yeah! It's such a cool idea, hosting a Fediverse server on your phone.

Good thread
There are a lot of folks in their 20s & 30s who need to learn more about cooking & are making basic errors, so here’s a Cooking Basics 101 thread while I make some refried beans.



Stove dials go between, say, 1 and 10. Use them. Some things need cooking slowly. Some fast. It changes everything.

It's so spectacularly exciting to see @eurosky.social start to come online 💕
We sent the first ~100 invites for @eurosky.social. We might send some more on the weekend, then start sending 100s daily if everything holds up well.
