Most self-hosters opt for owning their data/identity only.

... so there are no monolithic "instances" here. You can self-host one or more of the individual services and take up the responsibilities for only that service in terms of labor, cost, and legal liability.

As in a signature that a specific app wrote the record? Or something else?

I can see the social graph and maybe a leaderboard from the game’s official account. But since anything on the player’s repo can’t be trusted to represent legitimate accomplishments or purchases, I don’t know how much value gaming companies would see in it.

Report it and move on. The more reports the moderation service gets, the sooner it'll be gone and no longer annoying everyone.

Yes. That cooperation is the key. All apps that work on the same social mode having a common mechanism (same tag, shared lexicon, or something else). Each one a different implementation but still benefitting from content created on the other apps.

We're also smelling the impact. On our trains, buses, and the entire downtown area. This city used to smell like chocolate and now it smells like a filthy drug den.

an autoincrementing integer will restrict your ability to move away from a relational model, should your requirements change.

Building this on atproto would make it very compelling. Looking forward to see what you come up with.

Like this: docs.bsky.app/docs/api/com...
or if you really want to dive into the implementation: github.com/bluesky-soci...

I don't think the client apps or web ui give you an easy way to do that. Looks like you have to resolve the handle to a DID with the com.atproto.identity.resolveHandle API.

Benefits of having a list of links? That's the same benefit regardless of where it's hosted.
Benefits of having it (or any other social data) on your PDS? Already covered.
Possibility of your data hosting provider blocking you? Same regardless of whether it's hosted on a PDS or anywhere else.

The way I see it, the purpose of a PDS is to host your social data. All of it. Under your control (or the control of someone you trust).
True, you could host some of it somewhere else, in some other format, with some other access control mechanism, etc. But for public social data, the PDS is great.

Not using dev containers right now. I just build the image (image cache is shared with k8s via Docker Desktop so I don't need to push to a registry) and deploy with Helm to local cluster running NGINX ingress.

ugh I meant frequently used, not commonly used. I want my edit button 😂
