+ some info at the end to help anyone developing one of these tools add non-Bluesky PDS support.

Existing public hosted PDS options. This also has some things I hope that anyone hosting a PDS will look at. (Backups, account creation and migration will be covered separately.)

SMM Tools • App Password or Oauth for Bluesky? - Hilary's Leaflet
Some work needs to be done before App Passwords can even remotely be retired. Make that a lot of work - none of these multi-platform tools have implemented it OR the two that did have not implemented Oauth for different PDSs.

How to Use Bluesky: Everything You Need to Know
In this article, we cover how to use Bluesky and some tips for getting started sharing your posts on the platform.
Making good progress on hosting an AT Proto PDS for new micro.blog users. It’ll launch soon. Important note: it is not for people who already use Bluesky, at least not yet. The goal is to give new users an account on the atmosphere. Existing users will be happier sticking with the Bluesky PDS.
Every time you view or like a post or take most actions on Bluesky or Blacksky your requests go through your Personal Data Server (PDS). It’s also the home of all your data. To date, we’ve used other people’s software to run Blacksky’s fleet of PDS. In the next week we’ll be migrating to our own.
Is there a good write up anywhere on the sort of app design of Bluesky, with the frontend client and the PDS proxying requests. I'm curious about whether other approaches were considered, why this approach was chosen, how a relatively snappy experience was accomplished, anything related to that!
It's really cool that people are now using Bluesky not only from servers they host themselves, but servers they *wrote* themselves (or someone else here did), adding features the standard one doesn't have ❤️ Like, I now have 2FA again on my PDS because @baileytownsend.dev just went and built it

Cirrus PDS now support passkey auth. It was a bit of a puzzle adding it to a tool where where the admin is all CLI, but I'm really pleased with the flow I came up with. Give it a go! github.com/ascorbic/cirrus If you don't know what Cirrus is, it's a really easy way to host your own Bluesky data
