so on #Bluesky, rather than going with the well-documented and defined webfinger protocol, behind the .well-known directory, decided to make their own shit for verifying domains via HTTP.

thus, somebody took the S3 bucket name "xrpc" and now is s3.amazonaws.com on the platform

screenshot of a Bluesky post where somebody has taken the domain s3.amazonaws.com, saying "Hello it's me your good friend Amazon S3" earlier in the thread, somebody with a domain ending with translate.goog is saying "I wonder who's gonna be the first to get a handle on a domain they don't actually own..."
