Is someone working on updating #Bluesky to support the latest #PNG spec? (Which includes animated PNG #APNG.)#ATmosphere

Yeah, sure, #Bluesky is dying … but #DeerSocial and the #ATmosphere are not. 🤪 deer.social#SocialWeb

I just set up an easy to remember link for my #NeoDB shelf/catalogue/library account:
https://loomenji.youronly.one ( @youronlyone )
😁
It's in addition to the following:
* fediverse.youronly.one - @youronlyone
* atmosphere.youronly.one - @youronly.one
* gallery.youronly.one - @youronlyone@pixelfed.social
* wiki.youronly.one - youronlyone.tiddlyhost.com
* threads.youronly.one - @youronly.one.ofcl
If you have a personal domain name, use it for redirection (301 or 302). Easy to remember.
Another advantage, if you ever decide to move instances or change your accounts, you don't have to reprint business cards and update links everywhere, just change your redirect target setting. (It won't move your content of course.)
And if you're bridging to the #ATmosphere network, you can use your own domain as your handle for your #Fediverse network accounts (if supported by your bridging platform)!
Make use of your domain name! Redirect!
The second longest-running Augmented Reality Game (ARG), Ingress by Niantic, has finally joined the Open Social Web today through the ATmosphere network's Bluesky platform.

Something to SNS providers and software can learn from the gaming industry is name filters.
Majority, if not all, online #games implement a RegExp-based or manual input name blocklist. In the socmed landscape, software like Mastodon should implement it to prevent any handles **and** display names with "Mastodon" in it.
Instance admins and moderators should be able to add new entries as they see fit. They can choose between RegExp matching or manual input.
It is an effective way to minimize fake accounts pretending to be the platform, instance, service, and/or software. For example, the Mastodon **software** is currently being bombarded by fake accounts about "Mastodon account verification", with "Mastodon" in either their handle or display name, or both.
Other social media software and platforms should implement it as well. Of course, it is not the ultimate solution, but it at least adds another layer to enable admins and moderators to fight against scammers and phishers pretending to be official accounts or channels.
