Unfortunately yes. I also tried with an app password which gives me another error. I haven’t had the chance to take a closer look at my PDS, but it’s just the reference Bluesky-PDS behind caddy, I can sign into other atproto services no problem

I am using my atproto handle, and the pds.mischief.town is my self hosted pds (so entirely possible there’s a misconfiguration on my end, just not sure)

@semble.so I am getting an OAuth trying to sign in to your website, "Error: Failed to resolve OAuth server metadata for resource: pds.mischief.town "

not seeing any errors in my pds logs, any chance you know what might be going on?

a user (rvz) on hackernews stating '98.92% uptime is horrendous and unacceptabe. only one 9 of availability means you are seriously unreliable.'

PDSls Browse the public data on atproto

kinda figured the endpoint was the problem after I found out through pds.ls that the record was being written to my pds, but in my bluesky-pds.service logs the request from crawlers was failing and saying my pds was not a pds.

issue for later to debug why this is happening, but at least I can post

27.02.2026 03:48 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

got this to show up again after removing /xrpc/com.atproto.server.describeServer from the list of proxied endpoints to pds-gatekeeper (and requesting a re-crawl)

as always, @baileytownsend.dev saves the day 🩷

testing to see if my pds gatekeeper doesn't break my pds again :)

(definitely not a pds-gatekeeper issue, its a skill issue by me)

"you were so preoccupied with whether or not you could that you didn't stop to think if you should"

same, the synced windows are really messing with me and seem buggy. probably a skill issue but it might be time to find a different browser

it's been nearly 6 months running nixos on all of my devices, haven't regretted it once. been such a nice go this time around,

...now if only i didn't have to re-live the pain of Windows everyday at work that is severely under powered..
