Your identity on the Atmosphere.
pyroclastic.cloud is an atmospheric identity provider. This is your home base in the atmosphere, the open network that Bluesky and a growing number of applications are built on. It's the home base to your identity and data, and a supporting partner in your atmospheric experience.
Vesuvius is invite-only for now. Ask @ngerakines.me on Bluesky for a code. Creating an account means you agree to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
Pick a handle
Your handle is your name on the network. Accounts here can use any of these domains, or a domain you already own.
Short, a little irreverent, and easy to say out loud.
For the dads. Yes, that includes the jokes.
For Dayton, Ohio and the people who love it.
What comes with it
A plain, reliable home for your account, plus a few things that are harder to find elsewhere.
Your own website
Publish a site straight from your account with Highport, on a domain you own. Pick a few ready-made tiles or bring your own pages.
Private spaces
Keep some things between you and the people you choose: bookmarks, events, a small group. Spaces are new and still settling in, and they are supported here.
Shared accounts, done properly
Let a trusted person post or moderate as a club, project, or community account without handing over a password. Access is scoped and can be taken back.
Reliability and backups
Your account holds your identity and everything you've posted, so we treat losing it as the one thing that can't happen.
Daily encrypted backups
Every day we take an encrypted backup of all identity, cryptographic, and data material.
A plan for bad days
There's a written disaster recovery plan and a runbook for carrying it out, so recovery doesn't depend on improvising.
Status in the open
Scheduled maintenance and incidents are posted on the status page.
