Who Actually Owns Your ATProto Identity? Hint: It's Probably Not You
ATProto gives your PDS operator full control of your signing and rotation keys, letting them impersonate you across every app in the ecosystem or kill

Registering Identity Recovery Keys via PDS, using goat | bryan newbold
One of the big design goals for atproto is for users to "own their network identity". If something goes wrong with a hosting provider, it should be possible recover accounts by independently updating their identity to point at a new home. Every account in the network has both a handle and a DID. Th...
Your identity isn't your username
Your handle is a label; your identity is a key you own. atproto splits who you are from what you're called, so you can rename freely, prove who you are with a domain you control, and carry one identity across the apps you use. Part of 'Apps as Views, Not Vaults': the things you make are yours; apps are just the viewers.

ATProto in Practice #1: Identity
I’m starting a new blog post series that I’ve named “ATProto in Practice”. I want to go through some practical tasks that you’re likely to need when working with the protocol, using Ruby and my Ruby gems for the examples. These will (hopefully) be a bit shorter than my standard book-length blog posts here 🫠

🚨 Docs News!! you all asked for it, so I did a medium-sized refactor of the Auth section of the atproto docs: atproto.com/guides/auth I appreciated all the little pushes here as well as contributions from @danabra.mov and @zzstoatzz.io — much happier with the flow here now and hope you will be too!

atproto.comthis is kinda another reason im starting to think more and more that there would be worth in splitting atprotos identity layer out as its own spec and standard. building up handles and oauth around a DID makes for a really flexible cross platform (and potentially cross ecosystem) identity system

i kinda hate how atproto adopting DIDs has made people intrinsically associate DIDs with atproto ... it makes some people see me as some annoying bitch trying to shove atproto into places it obviously doesnt belong in when i suggest using DIDs as user identifiers for other systems
