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

Cooperative email infrastructure for PDS operators
LLC is filed (safety mechanism while scaling until we can actually make a co-op), I’m going to migrate my account to my own PDS (better late than never, right?) and then I’ll be able to do some more testing before sharing the code. I’ve also been building a really small little dashboard to help monitor the state of the shared smtp relay for when the time comes! Tryfamilia is an old throwaway domain of mine that I was using to test

Heads up if you have an account on W Social: your private data does not stay inside the W'alled garden.
Manton Reece - Introducing the Micro.blog PDS
I’ve started rolling out an AT Protocol PDS — personal data server — for new Micro.blog users. In the Bluesky world, a PDS is what stores your posts, follows, photos, and other data from apps. In the same way that creating an account on Micro.blog automatically gives you a fediverse handle, I wanted people to be able to create a Micro.blog account and have everything they needed to sign into Bluesky.
Self-hosting a Bluesky PDS and using your domain as your handle
Rafael Eyng's tech blog
“truly own your social identity on bluesky and at protocol” that’s… not how this works — this is just another PDS hosting service, which is great and needed, but it’s not giving people anymore ownership over their identity than having it hosted anywhere else let’s not confuse/mislead people plz

Top accounts that have moved to (or signed up on) @wsocial.eu PDS:
earnest question for @pfrazee.com + anyone else: Why does deactivating your bsky social account deactivate your PDS data repo altogether, inhibiting your ability to sign into other atproto apps?
Under the 1st option only the name is said to be public. You still publish nationality & birth-year date for those users. Nothing in your privacy notice, your TOS or this screen allows that. @ec.europa.eu & @ad4europe.eurosky.social is this the platform you want to endorse, or time for your own PDS?
W Social
This is not a leak. It is public information all our users have given consent when they verified
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.
あ
@london.gov.uk is still on wsocial.news and is still not actually on W Social. It’s been long enough to really make it look like it could be the Greta Thunberg thing all over again Sources: pdsls.dev/at://did:plc:axuvbckddrg7lwlp… blog.elenarossini.com/the-untold-story-about-w-soci…
