Publishing to the open network

Bluesky/Eurosky is one app on an open protocol (atproto). When you connect the Bluesky channel, Writizzy does two things: it announces each new article to your followers, and it publishes the article itself to the network Bluesky runs on, in a space that belongs to your account and not to us.

This brings your articles in front of thousands of potential readers on the atmosphere network.

Your link stops looking like a link:

How to connect

Go to Settings > Integrations > Channels, add Bluesky, and you are done.

The conversation comes back to your article

Under the comments on your article, a Discussion on Bluesky/Eurosky block shows the replies to your announcement post, along with the reply, repost, and like counts. It is read-only, with a button to answer on Bluesky.

The block appears as soon as there is any engagement, not just replies.

Your native comments are untouched. The two live side by side.

Your articles in other apps

The format Writizzy publishes, standard.site, is a shared community standard on AT Protocol, written by several publishing platforms. Other apps in that ecosystem, sometimes called the Atmosphere, can read it.

So your articles turn up in third-party readers and indexes without you doing anything per article.

Articles that are not published

• Pages are left alone. Only posts go out.
• Articles with a canonical URL are skipped. The original lives somewhere else, so it is not ours to claim on the network.
• Drafts are removed. Unpublishing an article deletes it from the network, and editing a published one updates it.

Checking it for yourself

Once connected, the channel page shows the address of your publication on the network, something like at://did:plc:xxxx/site.standard.publication/3lwafz….

That address is public. Anyone can read it with a tool like pdsls.dev without asking Writizzy for permission, which is rather the point.

Your blog also answers on /.well-known/site.standard.publication, which is how another app confirms that your domain and your publication belong to the same person.

Leaving

Disconnect the Bluesky channel and everything is removed: your publication and every article that went out with it. One action, no support ticket.

If you delete your blog or your account, the same cleanup happens, with one exception. If your blog runs on your own custom domain, we leave the records alone. That address can outlive your Writizzy account, and it is not our place to erase a presence you can keep pointing somewhere else. They are in your account, so you remove them whenever you want.
