It seems that Doctor Who Twitter is all moving to Bluesky! Yay!
If you’re on there too now, something we can offer is a cool username!
Basically you can use our domain tardis.team to get a username of your choice, instead of bsky.social
Here is an example @Tian ’s new profile! (you do not need to create a new profile, you can just change your username).
If you’d like to do this, and you are a Patron, please get in touch with me - a private message is best. I’ll sort it out as soon as I can (might be the weekend now).
Disclaimer: Once you do this, your old username will go back up for grabs. So if you’re made a business card or something, I wouldn’t recommend changing. However all followers and @-replies will all be carried across. More details about the technical side here (you don’t need to do anything technical)
Edit: your old username now stays reserved!

Shaunyyyyyyy I was so desperate to not give in and make an account but between this and losing my Seán Carlsen follow back I’m really tempted now…

I want to know how many people just think that’s a picture of Matt Smith but they can’t quite work out why it seems a bit off…

This is very cool. I’m still not sold on BlueSky, though. Is this a time-limited offer?

Well, whatever works to draw people in and trap them inside my inner circle ;)
I love how I’m turning into a serious meme

And it all started with a badly written kids’ book from 2007???

Yes! Even the worst of Doctor Who can lead to great things
I see that you’ve redecorated your username! I like it

Yup. Did it to keep my identity crisis (?) in control lol. Now I have the same username everywhere! What a relief!

Seems like they changed it? (I’ll probably still set up a second account to separate my politics-focused posts from my Doctor Who content. And I don’t fully trust such things in principle. How to verify your Bluesky account - Bluesky

Does this mean I’m now officially a part of the cult?

You became part of the cult the moment you made an introductory post here…

I take it no one had a problem with their account after the change? I’m pretty active on Blue Sky, so that would be interesting.

I can set you up a new username if you like, just need some time when we are both online and I’m on my laptop cos there are a few steps involved.
No problems that I know of!

But thought it might be useful for others.)
I never really liked this bsky.social. 
Thank you so much
