I had no idea deleted twitter/x handles re-entered availability - seems like a not great idea

FF also has a weird pattern of not allowing local extensions outside of the Dev edition unlike Chrome. Just tons of questionable little decisions like this pushing away what you'd imagine is their core audience.

Oh how exciting - I've been eager for a Reddit replacement. I'll be that guy and ask for an invite if you have one

Has this launched early access? I remember the reboot news earlier in the year but nothing since

Oh no, sorry - I believe you - just thinking about all _my_ technical debt/hacky solutions that have been lingering for far longer than 5 months

"5 months ago" ... right. right.

They can verify anyone, not just their staff - although in practice that is what we’ll likely see them do

Bluesky isn't the sole verifier, but they are reviewing each verification submitted by a Trust Verifier - does that not retain Bluesky as the ultimate arbiter of who can/cannot be verified?

I still think the domain-as-verification system is nice

Magic links are so frustrating to me - I purposefully don't have all of my email on my phone so if I try to use a service with magic links I'm basically bound to my computer.

To be fair this same issue appears when a verification code is sent over email, which is why I still prefer TOTP 2FA.

This is something I used in iTerm religiously and it does seem that Ghostty has a similar feature called "quick terminal", not quite 1:1 (tabs aren't supported, but maybe soon? github.com/ghostty-org/...)

Isn't it wild how most of us have one hand that just kind of sucks at doing stuff?

This was and still is the best verification system

I kind of disagree - why does the platform need celebs to have some kind of status marker? I feel like the userbase is becoming so hyperfocused on being _the_ Twitter replacement that they're missing the underlying intention of Bluesky and the decentralized platform generally

"I don't work for the company" all these excuses, smh. Just fix the specific problem I'm having, okay?

I think that, as a platform, Bluesky has found the perfect balance. They don't hide the nature of decentralization, but they provide a clean path to join and engage that doesn't turn off potential users who might be less technically inclined
