I have no idea what this means. Can someone explain?

If you can upload a custom file to a domain/subdomain, bluesky social (Jack Dorsey's new twitter) uses it to verify you are the owner of the domain. Chaz uploaded his custom file to their Amazon s3 bucket and now since he was the first one to do it, his account is now associated with Amazon S3.

It's ridiculous that this is not in the title.

Hacker News discourages "editorializing" the title, which means there's incentive to repeat what's being linked to exactly.

Most of the time, it's a good thing, but in cases like this is where this falls over.

(You can also see this in the other direction parent comment, for what it's worth, "Jack Dorsey's New Twitter" isn't really accurate, as far as I'm concerned. It is more informative overall, though.)

Describing or at least providing context is not editorializing. I don't know how this "discouragement" is phrased, but it should instead encourage (if not require) that titles mean something to a general audience (at least as represented by HN's users).

I am routinely down-modded and even banned for merely asking for more-descriptive titles. It's anti-user, anti-community, anti-usefulness, and douchey.

All we needed here was, at least, "Bluesky Social allows domain hijacking" or whatever it's actually doing (which I don't have a grasp of, even after following the cryptic link).

Or even just "This guy is now all of S3 on Bluesky Social." But that wouldn't be as click-baity, would it?
