A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Isn't owning the domain proof enough already?
Nobody else could possibly use max-p.me as their handle, and proving control of the domain is plenty for security sensitive things like LetsEncrypt.
Anyone you'd care to mark verified already brought their own domain.
Copying a comment from Reddit:
I like the idea, but then who gets to decide who is and isn't a credible source? Is it only intra-account verifying? Can anyone verify anyone else, or do you need to be authorized by bluesky to start verifying others?
