There's no shared lexicons for profiles yet, nor is there a way to go from existing profile records to http URLs without making lots of per-app assumptions. I'd like that, though.

part of the tricky bit here is that there can be multiple appviews for the same lexicon and users might have strong preferences for which to link to someone might want to link to their blacksky or northsky profile instead of their bluesky profile, even though they're all backed by the same record

well, we did, but the tricky thing here is that A) many of these services don't have profile pages B) even when they do, you may have not even filled out the basics and you'd end up on a pretty much empty profile page (even if the user is actively using the service itself).

Plus the challenge @notjack.space mentioned that IF you want to have them linked, there can be multiple views. That said: a feature could be added to allow for a user to mark some of the lexicons as "primary", select their preferred appview and then do link to those

But honestly that doesn't seem like a high prio item so far... didn't get this request before + it would require a lot of manual work by users adding their preferences (and keep these up-to-date) with no real benefit to themselves to make it usable (so I doubt that will happen)...
