Yeah, I think Bluesky should put more effort in getting users to create their own PLC key. It's trivial for someone who knows about it to do it, but of course the average user has no idea what atproto is. They need to explain it in a user-friendly way and have a simple tool to do it.
replyI'm not aware of what Proton does here, I'll look into that.
When you create a proton account, they create a recovery file for you and have copy about the importance and relevance at that point in onboarding. In other words, users shouldn't have to create their own PLC key, it should be created and downloaded on device automatically. I immediately thought "this is what bluesky should have done" when that happened (proton is recent for me), because this PLC key thing always comes up.
