💥 It took 72 hours to register the second thousand accounts on @eurosky.social 🎉 I expected more movement over the weekend, but apparently, people prefer to migrate during their working hours 😁

1/X I made an atproto proposal around PDS to PDS repo migration that gets around all of the pain points of account migration today and intentionally builds a migration flow for users to go to the PDS that they want to move to and commence the migration from there.

here is how i've been explaining PDS migration to the 115 users i've migrated: imagine your bluesky account as being an apartment. you're upset the rent is changing, so you move to a cheaper apartment on the other side of town. after you move, you have to update your address with the post office.

PDS Operator it's a self hosted dashboard for your PDS. watches labelers and dms you when an account gets flagged. accounts, takedowns, pwd resets, invites, relay status, passkey sign-in, audit log, setup wizard with a qr code. deploy in minutes. tangled.org/brookie.blog/pds-operator

I still can't believe @mancity.com had their account self-hosted on their own PDS before I did

pdsls.dev/pds.wsocial.network 1,308 accounts / 24 inactive pdsls.dev/dev-pds.wsocial.eu pdsls.dev/nws.wsocial.eu pdsls.dev/pds-prod.wsocial.eu pdsls.dev/stage-pds.wsocial.eu Appear to be duplicates of the above, don’t need to count toward number of users

We're very pumped to announce that the reference PDS now has an account management page! atproto.com/blog/pds-account-management You can now manage permissions, update your password, or deactivate your account directly from your PDS, as a regular user — no command line tools or Bluesky interfaces required!

The thought occurred to me (belatedly) that maybe there are other accounts on the promotional website that aren’t actually on W Social yet. Right now, wsocial.news shows me 4 users who are indeed on W Social and 3 who aren’t: @london.gov.uk, @beate.neos.eu, and @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu.
