Fediverse => Bluesky: automatic custom domain handles for all users on an instance #1537

Open snarfed opened 12 hours ago

snarfed commented 12 hours ago

Got an interesting request today: a fediverse instance would like to give all of their users who enable the bridge a custom domain handle on their instance's domain, eg @user@insta.nce would get the username user.insta.nce on their bridged Bluesky account.

Doable! It'd take some work though, and some custom development on the instance's end. Notably, they'd have to get each user's DID from Bridgy Fed and either put it into the corresponding DNS record or serve it over HTTPS on that custom domain.

I would definitely shorten my username if I could! I'd also like to see .ap.brid.gy removed from existing account usernames.
