General guide for migrating to another PDS

It's been a while since my last update, or even any progress, on the distributed PDS. I started looking into it again last week though and have hit quite the show stopper... OAuth 🫠

I'm not going to pretend like I fully understand the specs of how OAuth works, but I know enough I think. With OAuth, the client and server use something called DPoP. As part of this process, the server will…

Introducing vsky.network, a fan-out service for crawl requests across community atproto relays.

This is based on the following documentation from the official Bluesky GitHub:

CentOS Stream is not an officially supported distribution by the upstream PDS maintainers -- this is my own working setup -- so please do not bother them with support questions for a CentOS Stream host.

As soon as you have an open protocol you will have an ecosystem building up around it, and soon as you have an ecosystem you have people doing stuff differently. This is especially true when dealing with an open protocol built on a set of distributed pieces working together to create a whole.

atproto is such a protocol, system and ecosystem and it has a problem ... well it has many problems…
