Why HonestHook does not collect Bluesky search data
Switched off for archive collection after a measured 403 on the search API. The Bluesky profile and posts API routes are unaffected and live.
Switched off for collection. Bluesky's search API returns 403 ("Request forbidden by administrative rules") to our datacenter IP on the very first call, not after a burst. Through a residential proxy it succeeds 8 times out of 15, at random — which would produce a partial window every hour, and a partial window is not comparable to a full one. Measured 2026-09-09. The bluesky/profile API endpoint is unaffected and still live.
The archive and the API are different things. Bluesky as an archive source is what this page is about; as an API route it has its own page: /bluesky-api.

These figures are the archive’s own history, not a verdict on the source right now. Whether it is collecting at this minute is on the status page, which is never cached.
