Ask yourself: is ridding social media of bots and sock puppet accounts worth a third party company processing your passport data? When every border you’ve ever passed through has the same data in plain text for anyone to steal eventually anyway?

Looks like we have some competition from @wsocial.eu. Nice to see other attempts at a social network with real verified humans.

Reminder that we have a feed of all the human verified accounts on Bluesky.

I've written up my thoughts on the biggest challenges facing social media and how I think it needs to evolve. What it comes down to is that we need more humans and less bots. 👇

The future of social media is human

We cannot continue participating in social media platforms which do nothing to stop us being tricked by GenAI and the powerful people/governments that control them.

Hey #ATProto fans, there is a lot of excitement about new social networks integrating humanity verification, but did you know that we have already implemented this using ATProto’s labels/verifications? Check us out: onlyhumanhub.com

Exciting to see other platforms being built with human verification in mind. We have already shipped a privacy-first human verifier and integrated it into Bluesky. Join us! cybernews.com/tech/europe-...

European organizations may soon launch their own social media platform, W, requiring user identification and photo verification to prevent bots.

This is very close to what I built @onlyhumanhub.com. Except no photo verification needed and it runs on Bluesky and offers a labeler.

We've launched a refreshed front page and some fixes to our verification process. If you ran into problems before, now would be the time to give it another try! 👉 onlyhumanhub.com

How many bots do you think are among the followers of this account? Just on this first page, we'd say it's 13/17 or 76%. Obviously there is no way to prove this. But we do have a way to help you prove that you are definitely a human. 👉 onlyhumanhub.com

No app should ever store raw government IDs without any encryption. Even though we require passports for verification, we don't and never will store any pictures of your passports or any data from your passport in plain text. We even go a step further and hash your data, so it's irreversible.

You don’t have to look far these days to see bots on Bluesky, and these ones are obvious. What about the ones which aren’t? The best way through this is to verify your humanity and join our community of humans. 👉 onlyhumanhub.com

Multiple posts on Bluesky by bots (hosted on casjay.social and okashi.social). Each proclaiming love for someone called Sonny.

Multiple bot accounts posting very similar advertisements for Darksiders 4.

We have just created the Only Human feed™! This is a feed of Verified Humans: accounts which we have verified as belonging to real people. Truly the only feed that is free of bots and alt accounts. bsky.app/profile/only...

I got my new passport delivered to me Yesterday. First thing I did with it online was to do the below. See @onlyhumanhub.com by @dom96.picheta.me Needed the passport for EU Age Restrictions Guidelines coming into force from ‬21st July. onlyhumanhub.com/profile/cork...

The only way you can stop this from happening is to verify humanity. Our goal is to make this possible, get verified and join us now!

@mackuba.eu has created a wonderful tool that lets you see who has verified who, so if you ever want a list of the accounts we've verified you can access that here: blue.mackuba.eu/directory/ve...

We have just created verification records for each of our verified users. You won't get a blue check yet, but all the more reason to help us convince @bsky.app to adopt us as a trusted verifier so that you do! www.atproto-browser.dev/at/did%3Aplc...

We're hopeful that we can become a Trusted Verifier. We are already verifying the humanity of users and applying "Verified Human" labels to Bluesky accounts that pass our checks. We can offer additional checks for users that do not require anonymity. Blue checks would be appropriate for them.

There seems to be quite a few of you that have registered accounts on Only Human Hub, but have yet to verify them. I'd love to learn more about the reasoning if anyone is willing to share!

How can you tell if someone online is a human? What about whether your feed is full of sock puppet accounts? Often times you can't! I have built a solution: @onlyhumanhub.com. It is an app that allows you to verify your humanity and link your human profile with your Bluesky account.
