For those not getting the context(like me), this seems to be about the Bluesky Social(https://bsky.app/), a twitter alternative.

Further context: Bluesky lets you use a domain name you own as a user handle.

The official method is to set a TXT record, but apparently their "AT protocol" also lets you confirm a domain by serving `GET your.domainname.com/xrpc/com.atproto.identity.resolveHandle`

and `xrpc` was available as an S3 bucket name :)

Stunning that there are (were) any 4-char bucket names left.

N=1, but it appears users often create long and overly verbose bucket names.
