agree i'm doing this (handle is my personal site) but i want to take it further - i want my site content served directly from my pds without needing a third party host not sure there's a path to get there yet.. DNS needs to understand at:// or maybe the PLC could mediate somehow?

I'm convinced that there is a huge Atmosphere-sized hole in the personal website market, and here's why that matters👇

Self-hosting a Bluesky PDS and using your domain as your handle

[Proposal] AT-URI for cross-service records
tl;dr non-AtprotoPersonalDataServer services might host records, let’s introduce following AT-URI syntax with optional service field to reference those non-PDS hosted data. at://tangled_knot@did:plc:user/... ^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^ | path can be any format | (NSID/rkey prefered, but not enforced) service name (default to "atproto_pds" when omited) In this proposal, I’m going to explain why we need cross-service reco...

I’ve said this elsewhere but I would KILL for (and pay for) a service to host my PDS and have an AP server running off that same data, the way Fedisky set out to enable one social web source of truth. micro.blog feels uniquely positioned to provide this, any chance you’d consider doing that?

I think we need a "PDS as a Service". There are a bunch of little apps I'd love to make, but I don't want to have to host a PDS for each of them for anyone who doesn't already have an account. But I'd be fine with allowing them to register to a PDS with my app's domain and pay a fee per sign up.

@iheartnoise.bandcamp.com how did you set your bluesky handle to match your bandcamp domain? To my understanding, bandcamp manages dns on this end. Did not know you could adapt it for bsky
I've been pondering about having the browser resolve at:// URLs. I have been thinking that we could introduce a DNS-like (maybe DNS itself?) entity that goes from did:plc to URLs, the same way DNS goes from names to IP, and have the browser depend on that similar to how it depends on a DNS server.
