So regarding the Bluesky check marks, they're basically the equivalent of TLS certificate authorities, and everyone agrees, yes?

But I see some "well someone could trust a different set of CAs so maybe it's kinda decentralized?"

Do you know anyone who installs custom certificate authorities in their browser?

Me neither.

Yes, I know, corporations do this for internal things

Do you know a *person* who has chosen to do this

@cwebber Not in my web browser but I added the DN42 certificate authority to the system certificate store on one of my DN42 routers
