What could a "social internet" look like? Here's one example: Try navigating to a bsky.social handle directly in your browser! Now, it'll take you straight to the Bluesky profile. Your profile here is your home on the social internet.

Experimental feature: If you're using a custom domain already, and you want your own website to redirect to your Bluesky profile too: Set your domain to be a CNAME of `redirect.bsky.app` and we'll redirect your domain to your Bluesky profile URL.

could we do something like `at.domain.tld` e.g. `at.runspired.com` or even `@runspired.com` so that my website is still my website but there's a shorthand that redirects?

素敵な機能を試してみました。DNSレコードの設定です。 Hostnameに"www"を入力、Record TypeはCNAMEを選択、Addressに通常のホームページを選択。この場合、ブラウザのURLに"www.swoff.com"を入力すれば普段のHomepageが表示されます。 Hostnameに"@"を入力、Record TypeはCNAMEを選択、Addressに"redirect.bsky.app."を入力。この場合、ブラウザのURLに"swoff.com"を入力すれば"https://bsky.app/profile/swoff.com"が表示されます。

Any solution to redirect my old bluesky address (#https://bsky.app/profile/alexvicious.bsky.social) to my new (#https://bsky.app/profile/alexvicious.fr) with my domain ? Thanks in advance

Users should add so-called ALIAS/ANAME records for their apex domains as CNAME records are not allowed. Still, I wonder how you'd prepare the TLS server certificates for users' domains on your redirector.

I'm completely confused how a “certificate has expired” error could be in any way related to the DNS returning a CNAME, but every time I try to understand HTTPS/TLS/X.509, my brain just begs for the sweet release of death.

The DNS entry being a CNAME is sort of irrelevant. It's just saying which server is asked for the certificate. Until recently, Bluesky's redirect web server returned valid certificates for our custom domains (which they know as our handles), and it is no longer the case.
