I enjoy that the post-login confirmation page (https://antigravity.google/auth-success) still says "Docs | Twitter"

Can't wait for the day bluesky discovers it's possible to render content for visitors who aren't logged in.


In case others are curious, it just looks like this:

Not much to it really.

And yeah, for sure the only reason people outside of bluesky cannot see the content is because they're still figuring out how to actually serve image bytes over HTTP, which turned out to be a technically difficult problem that there is no prior research about.


It is an invite only beta on a staging domain.


Shhh we are supposed to be mad and cynical in this thread.


If you dont mind using the console apps, it seems like you are able to query from gosky and slurp all(?) of the data with the bigsky app. Im not sure if that is intended though. I dont even have an account or invite code yet -- just on my local server.

I'll have to listen!


Came here to post the same episode. Strongly recommended; it's eye-opening, and it will give you a good idea of the incentives and the type of people you're dealing with (although you'll see the techniques are the ones you are already know: SIM swapping, social engineering, escalation of personal attacks, etc).

Good luck defending your handle!


I haven't yet... so far I have always been able to get it back via a friend at FB.


Get on record with law enforcement and state legal reps. Unauthorized authorization is a federal crime, and a paper trail is crucial for seeking recourse.


I'd report it to the FBI, as well.


I think the stealing of my domain was a bit of social engineering by a hacker (not somebody at FB).

Now, my account gets taken without any noticeable trace on my end. No security emails, no suspicious login attempts, nada...


Contra the above dude, I don't think it's all that strange for Facebook employees to profit directly off of their access to these systems. See this article about how employees charge for verifications: https://mashable.com/article/instagram-verification-paid-bla...


there is a lot of precedent for Meta employees taking usernames. here's another example:

OS 11!


Nah, despite what they said in the keynote this is a smaller visual change than Yosemite.


I mean, it is literally macOS 11. That's what it said in the About This Mac screen on the presentation.


Whoa, I missed that! Thanks.


‘11, same
