Comments
People said it couldnβt be done, but we cracked the technology:
Videos can now be up to 3 minutes long!
Put another way, the Bee Movie now only takes 30 posts. (Please donβt test that.)
In addition to tooling to reduce DM spam, weβve also added a new Chat Requests screen for messages from unknown users. You can accept or reject new conversations here.
Mute accounts more quickly!
Tap the ββ¦β three-dot menu and select "Mute account" to mute directly from a post.
Weβre also pleased to include 3 new community translations: Welsh, Scottish Gaelic, and Esperanto.
As always, weβd like to thank our contributors and translators, including new contributors NicolasBorlet and seth-wood!
Puhleeease
you did not yet fix the bug of use of resources which forces to close the window after each message or composing hungs. Opened one months ago. Nothing changed.. 4 minutes to compose this message. βΉοΈ
stressful if we didn't have Bluesky. Thanks.

Now things still on my wishlist are
- please let us upload our own gif
- and send images via DM
- the option to untag people in replies so that one doesn't reply to every single tagged person.
Impressions are such uninteresting..
More info here π
- Group chats
- More emoji report
- More than just a heart to react with (add sad face, support react, etc for depth)
- Public calender and event integration (people stay on fb for this)
- Profile colours
- Skins
Please consider an easy account switcher from the compose screen so I don't have to keep composing posts and then discarding to switch accounts and rewrite π
Lots of info here π
[Thank you for the #ScottishGaelic ]

Can we please get bookmarks and also make it so the timeline doesnβt jump to the top when refreshing?
Their spellings are CRAZY! π€ͺππ€£
I love it. One of my best friends is Welsh.
Iβm sorry, but thatβs nuts.
What about encrypted chats and group chats?
For my part, though, I just keep using Esperanto regardless of the interface language.

They will still see your posts but you won't see theirs.
Thanks in advance π
When you block an account, you won't be able to see that person's profile and replies β hidden though a "blocked account" bar,
In searches, a blocked account won't appear, and the person also won't be able to see your account since you've blocked them.
Hope it helps!
i imagine that once bsky properly implements nonpublic data (posts, likes, blocks etc are all public to allow it to function in a less centralised way) theyll get to expand DM features
Can we please have the ability to remove followers? People you block currently count towards your followers, so everyone who's been around a while has an inflated follower count. Unless I missed it, there's no way to do this currently. This would greatly improve the experience
also private accts & bookmarks
yes i will keep posting this
but i'm still happy to be here
But the 50mb maximum file size is a problem in this case :)
I am very thankful for you and the other people that I followed and interacted with on the other site for posting here.
quem vai testar?
Bookmarks in next version, please!
We could just blame Jerry.
But you're missing out!
Or is it now done internally?
(π)
Feature request - please let us create new posts while on hashtag results screen.
ie - I tap a #hashtag, I'm taken to a screen full of posts with #hashtag in them. I want to be able to start a new post without leaving the screen I'm on. Ideally with #hashtag prepopulated.
You know how humans are.
Thank you!!!!!!
Maybe they crank it up to 200 mb? π€
50MB limit is a chokehold in 2025
I hope to eventually see larger filesizes allowed for images.
Also wondering if the "jump to top" button on the lower left of the mobile web version was removed? It's still there in desktop mode. I've gotten so used to it that I'm having a Brian Regan "something changed" moment. π

I can't get rid of it & It's vile... Help...
Only thing missing now is bookmarks and the site is pretty much perfect! Keep on doin' what yall are doin' Bluesky team!
Will there be a way to schedule posts in the future? πββοΈ
LFG
3 minute vids!!
3 minute vids!!!
Me:
When I can finally post 3 minute vids π©π€
Go update your apps
Check out my profile & click follow!
I want lots of fun followers who like to interact politely.
Frankly, I'd love a replacement to Facebook, since it's gone uber toxic, but so far nada.
Just doing my routine begging for an edit button.
Love the work yβall do ~
Still would love to be able to post images and gifs/videos in the same skeet.
Also the ability to turn off reposts for specific accounts. π
There's no sort option, it's nothing fancy, but it's better than nothing right now.
and an edit button. definitely an edit button!!!!
but yes, the algorithm is kinda wack. Been trying to get rid of politics and it still somehow seeps in to my feed despite over 42 muted words, 200+ blocked accounts and countless "show less of this"
https://bsky.app/profile/mmuds.bsky.social/post/3ljxi6ui3wc2y
Can we please get functional gifs?
*waits for markdown text*
Have you banned Jesse Singal then?
* The option to make our profile lists public or private
* The option to edit our lists once created
* Being able to attach graphic files in DMs
* AN EDIT FUNCTION???
Now in my 510th day of Bluesky-bliss.
(E vΓdeos maiores π, agora falta sΓ³ mandar imagem por dm)
thx
I love all these changes and they make me hopeful but I still want the iPad app to look like an iPad app lol
i mean ig if you have multiple accounts...
Bear with me- Iβm slow π€£
Still would like to see bookmarks, the ability to DM photos, being able to add gifs directly to flutters in place of mp4 graphics, and adding links from Instagram that show the actual link content instead of saying 'login to instagram.' #Bluesky
- drop a red pin icon in the comments of the post/thread you want to follow
- ALSO save the Pins Feed to collect all your pins
*To save the Pins Feed: click the link below, tap the pin icon at the top right
I'm using Android. Are you using iOS? Maybe the icons are slightly different?
I've tried multiple times to pin the one thread with no success so Bluesky needs to do better with that. I don't pin often and have a couple of pinned threads already so I know how to use it. But that one thread is still unpinned for inexplicable reasons.

Welcome to bsky everybody! You're just in time! π€
Pretty please, may we have a spoiler label? Something that will hide/collapse both pictures AND post text unless you click through, and that has a caption so you can say what you're spoiling.
Please, I don't want to accidentally spoil media for other people π
next, the ability to send pictures in DMs please?
Hopefully we will be able to unfollow followers that we don't want following us soon too.
(Try saying that 3x fast.)
Please...
