We should stop calling it as Bluesky "account". It's Bluesky "profile", not "account". I'm not saying people should learn about the whole #atproto business to use Bluesky, but at least they should know that their "account" is part of larger world and not tied to just Bluesky.

You don't have a "Bluesky account"
Well, okay, maybe you do. But that "Bluesky account" is actually much more than just a "Bluesky account". Let's talk about it.

Bluesky is under fire for allowing usernames with racial slurs
Bluesky’s moderation woes continue as users threaten to leave the site in protest of its failure to flag slurs in account usernames. Many users — particularly Black users — are frustrated that Bluesky hasn’t apologized for allowing racial slurs to slip through its moderation tools even though they violate the platform’s community guidelines. “Our community guidelines published yesterday reflect our values for a healthy community, and we’re working on becoming better stewards every day,” Bluesky CEO Jay Graber said in a post on Saturday.
Universal profiles on the open social web
One of the discussions we had during the community day ahead of Eurosky was about this notion of interchangeable user profiles in the Atmosphere / Open Social Web. @laurenshof.online even recorded the entire conversation so maybe there’s a transcript I could clean up for us? Anyhow, here’s the gist of it. Deferred profile Right now on roomy.space if you sign up with your existing Bluesky account, we will defer to that Bluesky profile for your profile in Roomy as well, essentially recognizing t...

Network Account Management | Bluesky
Accounts in the atproto network are app-neutral: a single account can be used for short posts, long-form blogging, events, and more. But until now, the best way for users to create and manage accounts has been through client apps themselves.
There are some questions about this service, especially since it seems to be from Bluesky (the company): -> github.com/bluesky-social/account-info Is this supposed to be a generic atproto service? Does this "promote" or "ossify" the Blueksy account lexicon now deeply into atproto as the canonical "account"?

1. My new preprint has its own bluesky account. Why? The problems facing social media & scientific publishing are similar: both are dominated by powerful oligopolies. The @atproto.com tech underlying bluesky that aims to solve the social media prob might also help solve the scientific pub prob 🧪 🧵

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as BlueSky, is in fact, atproto/BlueSky, or as I've recently taken to calling it, atproto plus BlueSky. BlueSky is not a service unto itself, but rather another component of a fully functioning distributed system made useful by atprot
Your Bluesky account is a lot more than just a Bluesky profile. For instance, I also use @leaflet.pub (website/newsletter), @grain.social (pictures), @popfeed.social (movies, TV shows), @bookhive.buzz (books), @tangled.org (code), @margin.at and @semble.so (social bookmarks). #EconSky
Leaflet
Bluesky and Leaflet are in the Atmosphere!!! ...wtf does does that mean? Here's a little explainer, written for everyone. No tech experience or prior knowledge required. All you need is 4 minutes or less :D
i think, end of the day, the real problem with Bluesky is that most of its users are here *because* they want to be in a bubble. and they can tell themselves that it’s just about not being around Nazis it supporting Musk, and that’s part of it, but also there’s a palpable desire to be ensconced.
