I've decided to shut down verifiedbsky.net. While there was quite a bit of interest early, that has basically completely died down and it took some effort to keep the service alive. It was fun, I learned a lot, but it doesn't make sense anymore. Thanks to everyone who used and supported it!

It took a bit, but we now have the first verified #AWSHero, @lockhead.dev! If you are an #AWSHero yourself or know anyone who might want to get that label, it's very easy at verifiedbsky.net

Should now be fixed and the label added again. Also FYI @danielroe.dev @ba.4bes.nl @foosel.net @leonardomontini.dev @jesstemporal.com @end3r.bsky.social @eliostruyf.com @santoshyadav.dev @colbyfayock.com @julio.arruda.io @whitep4nth3r.com @dirk.lemstra.org @jan.ohmyposh.dev @funbucket.dev

Yes, that's a known issue at the moment, hope to fix it over the next days. Sorry for the automated removal. I tried to reset it, but somehow failed to do it properly 🙁

Thanks to great input by @bmarwell.de, verified bluesky now also supports Apache Foundation Member verification 🥳 Thanks a lot! With the same update, I have also removed support for conference verification as there was very limited demand by organizers and speakers

It's a bit tricky if you changed you account name, but I'll try to fix that manually. In the future, I plan to also store the DID which doesn't change even if the account name changes, so I know how to reach out

Since today re-verification of accounts verified on verifiedbsky.net is happening. Every week, each account is checked if the verification still is ok. If it fails twice, a notification DM is sent. If it fails 4 times, the label is removed and the account is removed from all lists.

And we are a) back online (thanks to the amazing @fermyon.com team for an incredibly fast bugfix and release) and b) happy to share a new feature: Cloud Technology Townhall Tallinn (cloudtechtallinn.com) speakers can now verify themselves as well!

Because of a technical limitation in the @fermyon.com cloud, I had to move the backend and took the opportunity to finally get a good DNS name: You can find the tool from now on at verifiedbsky.net!

You only need to put in your ID, so the part after the last /. In your case, just neilchandler

Sorry, I made this more complicated than it needed to be... Now you can just enter whatever comes after the last / in your profile URL, no matter whether it ends in numbers or not. Can you please try again?

Great idea. My career started with IBM WebSphere (Application Server and Portal, even Process Server), so would be quite a throwback for me 😂 Would you have an example of a champion with a Bluesky link in their profile?

Where do you see that? The label should say "Oracle ACE" as in the screenshot above

With the latest release, Oracle ACEs (@oracleace.bsky.social) can now be verified 😊 If you are an ACE and verification doesn't work for you, please let me know or file an issue on github.com/tfenster/ver...
