This is where I write what's on my mind. No filter, probably a few hot takes, and most likely someone, somewhere, will be offended by what I write. But hey...

W Social and why I hate it
Aug 1, 2026
So. That's a definite statement in the post title and I'm going to stand by it. I hate W Social, for various reasons.

To preface this post, I messed up and managed to delete my actual running PDS's data directory by way of fat-fingering the delete button on the cloud volume I was using for it. This means if you have no rotationKeys set on your did:plc you are straight out of luck, since the keys required to sign the operation to point your old identity to a new PDS are... as you guessed it, in...
