Frequently asked questions
Bluesky handles on bsky.social can only contain lowercase letters (a-z), numbers (0-9), and hyphens (-). They must be at least 3 characters and cannot start or end with a hyphen. Underscores, spaces, and special characters are not allowed.
Click the "Claim on Bluesky" button to go to bsky.app. If you're new, sign up and choose your handle during registration. If you already have an account, go to Settings → Handle to change it. Handles are first-come, first-served, so claim quickly once you find one you like.
Yes. Bluesky supports custom domain handles like @yourname.com. You verify domain ownership via a DNS TXT record in your domain provider's settings. This gives you a unique, portable handle not tied to any one server.
The check queries the live AT Protocol public API, so it reflects real-time data. However, a handle shown as available can be claimed by someone else in the seconds between your check and your registration. Claim as quickly as possible.
No. BskySuite is an independent project not affiliated with or endorsed by Bluesky Social PBC. We use the open, publicly available AT Protocol API.
