3. But the other SM platforms are not doing this. It's their choice.

Until the other SM platforms insist on this, then I will point the finger at them.

FWIW: I forgot my BlueSky password quite awhile back. I could not reset it for anything! It never worked. I even emailed. Heard back from them, "Oh we'll fix it". After a month, they never fixed it.

I was about ready to give up, until I found my password stored in my password manager under "bsky"....I was looking under BlueSky. Hence, I was able to log on again.

But the password issue shows their infrastructure...or lack of it.
