just verified myself in bluesky fashion, linking my account to a personal domain. my new handle is willoremus.com which is kinda cool i guess? if you're into that sort of thing? but still doesn't feel like the long-term answer to this site's impersonation problem. i could be wrong though!

the thing is, all the other forms of verification are problematic too. i'm willing to at least *consider* the possibility that bluesky's approach is the lesser evil, especially it turns out to be a way for it to make money in lieu of advertising. but it requires educating users which is never easy.

They can! That's why I created a new placeholder account with my old handle, just in case.
