Working on #RobinFeed #SpaceHost

I like to understand things. I like to make things.

The meaning of life — first survive, then reproduce 🌞

Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good (enough).

After a brief demo at FediCon 2025, a new, open source fundraising system for the #Fediverse has been released to the public. It's native to the network, and you sign in using your own Fediverse account.

I'm thrilled to announce that I'll be taking a trip to Vancouver, Canada, at the end of the month, to hold a panel at FediCon! A lot of my friends in the community will be going, many of them have been on my podcast. This is a birthday gift to myself, and I'm super excited for the opportunity.

I was planning to attend #ahoy25

But, certain things made it so it didn't happen.

However, I am grateful people are posting about under its hash-tag.

3. Trusted Verifiers are in keeping with our ethos -- that Bluesky shouldn't be the sole verifier, and that there should be systems that exist outside of us as part of a robust civic infrastructure. The world shouldn't depend on massive social companies as the sole authorities

A couple of quick thoughts on this before I disappear for my morning block of meetings

1. Domains are still valuable identity signals! Multiple methods are good to have
2. Identity verification will continue to evolve from here

We’re introducing a new layer of verification on Bluesky — a user-friendly, easily recognizable blue check.

In addition to account verification issued by Bluesky, we're also introducing Trusted Verifiers. Select independent organizations can verify accounts directly.
