lotta strong feelings about the checkies, as expected—broadly positive once people get how it works! imo the Bluesky app is an opinionated lens of an open network, and this additional editorial trust layer is a strong compliment to the more objective domains layer. I love that we’re building…

is there a more technical explanation of how verification works on the protocol layer? the blog post is pretty short and doesn't give any info on this

users can publish verification records, which point to an account and include a handle and displayName (so if you change your name it gets invalidated) bsky.app chooses which verification records it wants to display, which is currently the limited set of Trusted Verifiers

got it, thanks! can we expect the ability to choose custom verifiers in the future? (like lablers)
