Experimental feature for those comfortable with DNS, you can set your domain to be a CNAME of `redirect.bsky.app` and we'll redirect your domain to your bsky profile URL.
Disclaimer: this is an experimental feature and may be removed if we run into problems with it, but hopefully not!

Not yet, sorry!
Later we'll likely use an IP we own but we're not currently.
You can also use "bsky.example.com" -> "redirect.bsky.app" or "bluesky.example.com" -> "redirect.bsky.app" and we'll strip off the "bsky" or "bluesky" prefix when redirecting to your profile.

This worked well. Has the "experimental" status for this changed?
No, see this URL for example: bsky.nilesh.trivedi.link/post/3laqk2h...
"bsky" subdomain gets stripped as a special case, redirect happens to my bluesky profile and /post path is retained.
The idea is to use my own domain name for my bsky posts without having to run a server.
Thanks. Looks like it has to be bsky.nilesh.trivedi.link and not social.nilesh.trivedi.link
I can redirect bsky.jjude.com to this profile; but can't redirect solical.jjude.com to this profile.
Yeah, I think "bsky" is more appropriate than generic words like "social" or "at". In AT, data definitions like posts are completely owned by apps (eg: bsky). AT devs explicitly stayed away from trying to standardize data formats (unlike ActivityPub). I think this will hurt users at some point.
I'm assuming this only works for `bsky` & `bluesky` subdomain prefixes?
ah.... only few days back i'd set up the redirect for bsky.lucidillusions.in (should have waited XD)
(although only for http // but i guess i should do the update soonly)
1. Some hosts allow you to do a CNAME of your apex.
2. You can use the current IP address of redirect.bsky.app but it may change at some point, and then you'll need to update it.
Lovely 🎄 present :) alexs77.rodeo goes to my *public* profile page ;)
(And of course also bsky.alexs77.rodeo 😄)
Lovin' it :)
