  20. EU-hosted #Bluesky app mu.social is piloting a democratised and distributed approach to account verification, as opposed to Bluesky’s centralised model. Would it be useful to verify #philosophy community accounts and orgs based on my existing #philosophy lists? Any objections to this? #PhilSky
