Happy to host y'all!
Shows the heading ATProto PDS and "home to 209 accounts"
Our little home has grown to over 200+ active accounts!
New to the Atmosphere? You'll need to select a PDS (Personal Data Server) to access apps on the Atmosphere, such as Bluesky, Tangled, and Spark. selfhosted.social A popular community-run PDS BlueskyThe main Bluesky PDS instance Tophhie CloudA PDS service by Tophhie Blacksky PDSA PDS service by Blacksky Algorithms Another PDS Enter your own PDS host URL Learn more about self-hosting Each host has their own policies and reliability standards. Your ATProto data lives on the host you choose and you can migrate later. Note: Streamplace has its own moderation rules - you can be banned from Streamplace regardless of which host you choose.

Streamplace v0.9.9 is live! Aside from a variety of bugfixes, we've completely revamped our Sign Up button and it now suggests, in randomized order: @selfhosted.social, @blackskyweb.xyz, @tophhie.social, and @bsky.app!
What are other open-access PDS providers we should include?
Idk if I have enough eyes for another chat room 😅
We're happy to give devs somewhere brand new identities on the atmosphere can be created if the user has never been on the atmosphere before!
Not all roads lead to Bluesky in the atmosphere. Sometimes it's to us, or other communities like @blackskyweb.xyz and @transrights.northsky.social.
selfhosted.social, the neighborhood’s PDS. Buy one get one free atproto app everyday.
You can now sign up to @rocksky.app with @selfhosted.social
no account? no problem!
thanks to @selfhosted.social 🩵
whoops! Thank you that notice is done so I hid it. Should be able to refresh and read the site much better.
to the atmosphere who may have never heard of Bluesky, but have of your app and want to sign in to use your app.
Yes! That's the promise of the PDS, and we're a community hosted one. Also worth noting: if the user already has an account with Bluesky, they already have a PDS and login, so they do not have to create a brand new identity. They can just use that one. This is for brand new users to your app and..
We love The Moth App ™️ and would welcome the moths!
You may also let them know they may already have an account on the atmosphere, especially if they found out about it via a Bluesky post.
There are also other great PDSs that do not require an invite code, like Blacksky at blacksky.app. Each PDS has their own T&S so best to review those first.
Create an account screen on the PDS
To do this you just pass the full PDS url prefixed with https, instead of a handle on oauth. This will give them a screen where they can create a new account, then redirect authenticated to your app.
On this page users can also review our T&S and privacy policy before they create the account

Blento's login or sign up page
ATProto devs did you know you can use selfhosted.social for users to create brand new accounts on the atmosphere in your applications? Both deckbelcher.com and blento.app uses our PDS. A user's journey into the atmosphere does not always have to be started from Bluesky. It can start from your app.
You can now signup directly on blento.app without having to already have an atproto/bluesky account!
Powered by @selfhosted.social's PDS (thankfully didnt have to set up my own pds 🫶), pretty happy with the sign-up flow too 😊 from no account to created blento page in less than 1 minute!
I second this. If you are running a tap instance if you could please update to this. If you have heard me talking about @selfhosted.social's high CPU usage, it was this.
There was a bug where when a tap instance subscribed to a repo and the repo changed in any way, tap would download the whole repo

active on the bluesky east and west below. The west one is becoming bsky.network tomorrow if I'm not mistaken
If I'm not mistaken it is changing the host behind bsky.network to the new one. So everything should work. I believe most troubleshooting will be a reboot of the PDS or request crawl once it is in place and switched over. Using debug.hose.cam will be helpful as well and want to see...
This is expected to happen tomorrow, and we do not expect any downtime when Bluesky PBC does the changeover.
Can keep an eye on our notice message at the top of selfhosted.social if anything changes and will send out modmail via email if there is an extended outage.
Dreams do come true. @selfhosted.social is now running on two PDS containers to spread the work across multiple node processes.
Bad news. It did not help with CPU usage being pegged at 70%. It is now 100%. I guess if you're going pay for something, use it all.
Awesome! I'll dm you from @baileytownsend.dev.
For that last one we would have to figure out some more details there.
Def welcome to send them our way! May just explain a bit what they're signing up, a PDS etc. But using the OAuth flow everyone has mention works and loads in the captcha for us so no invite code is needed, and T&S are listed there. Can also let me know about maybe doing handle endings in blento.app
We’re out here as well 👋.
There is a list here as well that is a solid look at PDSs and their active user counts
blue.mackuba.eu/directory/pd...
Awesome! Made sure to set a wait on our side as well so hopefully it’ll send properly for everybody next time.
sent! should be under the subject "Test selfhosted.social email"
settings -> account should be at the top there. If that looks good I can send you a test one. Could of also been on my side. That script may need a bit of a delay between sending each one
Awesome! Thanks for setting that and the help!
Some more details from another post. You may have also notice but we now have a status on the webpage that will update anytime we have issues, as well as you should of received an email earlier from the PDS notification system about the outage
