Invalid Händel
October 17, 2025 at 9:33 PM
It's been three days since I haven't been able to verify my domain as a handle after getting a "invalid username" out of nowhere.
I constantly get a "Failed to verify handle. Please try again."
Tried again, I did, many times.
Who should I tag to get help? @bsky.app #Bluesky #InvalidHandle

#invalidhandle

⁉️ Hey @bsky.app!! I changed my handle to a custom domain to self-verify a few weeks ago, and now many users and followers are telling me my handle is Invalid—can't be tagged and can't find my handle on 3rd party stats apps. Re-verified and sent you a support ticket last week.. HELP 🙏

I used tektite and this is the error message I'm getting:

Error: Account creation failed: {"error":"InvalidHandle","message":"Invalid characters in handle"}

DAMN YOU WROT INVALIDHANDLE

a guy who had a regular handle before had it change to InvalidHandle randomly, so it doesn't necessarily mean they're bots, but it is bizarre

Gemeint ist natürlich @spectre7.org !!!

Und nicht The @invalidHandle... 😉

Und ich kann mich der Empfehlung nur anschließen 🤗
Ihr schaut hier nach wirklich nette, offenen und ehrlichen Personen? Ich ja auch. Deshalb folgende ich zum Beispiel dem @handle.invalid !

Hey @bsky.app notnsure why but I have an #InvalidHandle again. I have verified the domain dns record but it's still showing as invalid.

What's up with all the #Bluesky folks with a label on their profile that says " #InvalidHandle"? Are these folks being told that they are #oxymorons? Do they not exist if they are not " #ValidHandles"? Will ICE round them up if they never become #Valid?

Apparently my handle was invalid.. And then when I verify my domain it says it's all good but won't update the handle..

No idea why..

I think below did the trick. Oomph 🫨

"If you see your handle now says “Invalid handle,” please reverify it by navigating to Settings > Change my handle > Type in your current handle > Verify DNS Record > Update"

#invalidhandle
I also have an invalid handle. I don't know how to fix it, yet.

Suggestions are welcome!

You can still type @keradamo.com ?

Aux États-Unis, en Grande-Bretagne, en Allemagne et dans bien d'autres pays, de nombreuses institutions (collectivités locales, assemblées et parlementaires, opérateurs publics...) prennent leurs marques de façon ordonnée sur Bluesky.
La France est gouvernée par un pseudo invalide.

This is weird. On the web, it's still showing #InvalidHandle; however, on the hamburger menu in the Android Bluesky app, my custom domain has returned. I guess it's taking it's sweet time to propogate.

Alright, so I reverified by DNS settings; however, the #InvalidHandle isn't changing. I'll let it sit overnight to see if the changes need time to propogate. If still broken tomorrow, I'll reach out to Bluesky customer service.

OOPS! #InvalidHandle. Now that my domain has transferred to namecheap, I need to go in and re-add the domain validation string.

@bsky.app @support.bsky.team what happened to the accounts belonging to US Senators on Bluesky?

For at least the past day, every account I follow says “invalid handle.” Is Bluesky still safe?
