@merill.net is a machine, I wish I had just half of that energy 😅 Excellent work mate! 👏🏻

merill.net•86 days ago

It's easy when I love what I do and get to learn new things.

Made even more awesome by staunch supporters like you Stian!

cyb3rmonk.bsky.social•85 days ago

This is awesome! Would be nice if you offer a one time donation option as well ❤️

merill.net•85 days ago

Cheers, will add one.

guillaumed.bsky.social•86 days ago

Awesome job @merill.net !

bradenleague.com•86 days ago

We need more Xbox folks on here!!

merill.net•86 days ago

Yes!

rios.engineer•86 days ago

Awesome work Merill. Really sleek site too. I did have to change my MVP social from my https://bsky.rios.engineer to the one suggested in the verification though.

merill.net•86 days ago

Thanks!

You can use the Refresh button in the Connect & Verify page to update it.

aurorascharff.no•84 days ago

Awesome job! Seems to be working 🔥

egilhansen.com•83 days ago

Cannot get my label working. Have added my bsky to my MVP profile. Any hints as to what I need to do?

merill.net•83 days ago

You need to sign up at https://bluesky.ms see the guide in the pinned post of @bluesky.ms

samerde.day3bits.com•86 days ago

🤩 Merill, this is amazing!!!

merill.net•86 days ago

Thanks Sam!!

samerde.day3bits.com•86 days ago

Are you going to re-add the Twitter/alt network profile attribute (or did I miss it)?

merill.net•86 days ago

Yeah I removed it to keep it simple. Might add back if more folks want it.

The old site is still up at https://doc.bluesky.ms/

samerde.day3bits.com•86 days ago

Makes sense!

jas.ong•86 days ago

Awesome work, Merill!

Now that I’m registered and have a badge, can I delete the app password from https://bsky.app/settings/app-passwords, or does your service need it to persist?

merill.net•86 days ago

You can delete the app password. It's only used for a couple of seconds to verify ownership.

merill.net•86 days ago

Huge thanks to everyone who tested.

I was able to make so many tweaks and improvements thanks to your amazing feedback 💜!

Also a HUGE thank you to everyone who sponsored to help pay the bills for the hosting of the labeler service, website, etc...

You can go to https://bluesky.ms/dashboard/settings/billing to sub

After subscribing, it keeps showing that I’m on the free plan?

merill.net•86 days ago

Yes, sorry it's a bug I need to fix.

merill.net•86 days ago

Thank you for sponsoring Helmer!

helmer.msgeek.nl•86 days ago

You’re welcome! You created a very nice tool, we can all benefit from, thanks for that!

merill.net•86 days ago

itspecialist.cloud•86 days ago

Same issue here 🙋🏻‍♂️

merill.net•86 days ago

Yes.

It's tracked, will fix it tonight.

merill.net•86 days ago

@danielroe.dev the site should make you smile 🥰

matt.leirdahl.com•86 days ago

This is amazing! Only request I would have is to add Dynamics F&O to the topics list!

merill.net•86 days ago

Will do. Is that how you say it or should we use the full name.

matt.leirdahl.com•86 days ago

Microsoft is calling it Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Supply Chain Management these days but most people still call it Dynamics 365 F&O so I think either way works!

danielroe.dev•86 days ago

i love it! 🔥

merill.net•86 days ago

I absolutely loved 💚❤️ building it. Thank you for such an amazing platform!!

aurorascharff.no•84 days ago

Fantastic website indeed. I need to try Nuxt.

merill.net•84 days ago

Try it with NuxtHub.

In my 30 years of building apps, this was one of the most enjoyable experiences end to end.

atinux.com•84 days ago

Thank you 💚

merill.net•83 days ago

Hey @atinux.com

You and the rest of the team have hit it out of the ballpark.

I came in with ZERO knowledge on @vuejs.org, @nuxt.com and NuxtHub & I built this site in less than three days!

Most of that time was spent wrangling @atproto.com

Everything felt so natural and intuitive to use 😘

👏🙏

danielroe.dev•86 days ago

I'm glad 😊❤️

allwayshype.com•86 days ago

This is so incredible Merill! Thank you so much for all of hard work! You've definitely helped ease the transition over to @bsky.app! :D

merill.net•86 days ago

Thanks Hailey.

I love the open nature of bsky and want to make it easier for folks to connect with each other.

jthake.bsky.social•86 days ago

Thank you for doing this . Already signed up and operational!

darrenjrobinson.com•86 days ago

Love your work Merill.
Bluesky finally has that feel that Twitter had 15 odd years ago when it finally got useful with a bunch of sub-communities

merill.net•86 days ago

Exactly.

That is what I'm trying to accelerate for the MS community.

jontravels.bsky.social•86 days ago

Merill, this is great! Thank you for putting this together, BlueSky is becoming really handy.

merill.net•86 days ago

Agree. It's so good to see some additional context when folks reply, post etc.

nikkichapple.com•86 days ago

@merill.net, thanks. Verification added

merill.net•86 days ago

Nice! Looking good.

mbr.bsky.social•86 days ago

Two q's:

-I was on here, manually by you (thank you!). Do I need to rereg?
-When I change the number of items per page, the page selector doesn't change. The number of pages should decrease when selecting 100/page instead of 10/page.

merill.net•86 days ago

Yes, this site needs re-reg because I've added verification to ensure ownership of the Bluesky profile.

Tx for the catch on the bug. Will add to fix.

mbr.bsky.social•86 days ago

Done and done.. Thanks again for your efforts.

tndata.bsky.social•85 days ago

Great site! 😀

merill.net•85 days ago

Thanks Tore!!

chanceofsecurity.com•85 days ago

Will you add MCT label as well? 😊

adamfowlerit.com•86 days ago

I've tried a code twice that I've recieved by email but it comes up invalid. Tried both following link from email and just entering the code.

merill.net•86 days ago

Hit the back button and you should be all set.

Your email was verified but it's taken you to that page for some reason. Need to figure out the issue.

adamfowlerit.com•85 days ago

Ah maybe for already verified accounts, I wasn't sure if I had to re-register

darrenjrobinson.com•86 days ago

I had a similar issue.
Went to https://Bluesky.ms in an incognito tab and went through again getting a new code.

merill.net•86 days ago

I got rid of the invite code for registration now.

I anyway validate the bsky handle so the mail things is not really necessary.

When bsky adds federated auth support I can completely switch over to using it as a social login provider...

michael42.bsky.social•86 days ago

That's so awesome, thank you so much :)

robstr.dev•86 days ago

Great job, as per usual 👏

techwatching.bsky.social•86 days ago

That's awesome. Thank you for your amazing work. Is the source code available somewhere?

merill.net•86 days ago

I would have loved to, unfortunately I used a paid starter kit template to get the site out fast and one of their conditions is that it cannot be open sourced.

techwatching.bsky.social•86 days ago

Okay I understand. I thought you just used some Nuxt UI Pro components and I was curious to see the code. My personal website/blog is based on the Nuxt UI Pro SaaS template, I love this technology 😉

techwatching.bsky.social•86 days ago

By the way, the URL https://bluesky.ms/starterpacks does not work anymore.

techwatching.bsky.social•86 days ago

Maybe a redirection to https://doc.bluesky.ms/starterpacks/ would be needed
