For journalists, I suspect one appeal of the Twitter verification system was that reporters were verified but not presented as official accounts of the news organization, so you could wash your hands if someone posted something bad. Putting them under your domain makes it a lot more official.

I still have find it interesting that StatCan lists non-SA MoM figure before SA MoM in their press release...

alright~ that's a good answer~~

just searched what a Bluesky Relay is, and may i ask... why you want to host your own?

Benny Tai, D1, the architect of the 2014 Occupy/Umbrella movement and the alleged mastermind of what the Hong Kong government regarded as a plot to undermine it and sow chaos by winning a democratic election and exercising constitutionally protected powers to refuse a budget, jailed for 10 years.

Student leader and Hong Kong democracy icon Joshua Wong was jailed for 4 years and 6 months, while former lawmaker Claudia Mo, one of the oldest defendants at 67, received a 50 month sentence.
