A good list to follow. And I want to emphasize a phrase in the description: “JOIN THE CONVERSATION.” Too often, social media photo posting brings “likes” but little conversation. But many of us welcome discussion of our photographs and related subjects. When you ”join in” you add value, too.

I am excited to share my new curated list and starter pack of inspiring nature photographers currently active on Bluesky: go.bsky.app/N37oYKG I hope you enjoy! #100%human #bluesky #photography #starterpack #nature #naturephotography #landscape #landscapephotography

I would love to see this group help the photography community here move away from worthless hashtags and towards actual conversation. Imagine putting all that blue garbage in a print publication or on a name card in a gallery. It’s the opposite of art.

I agree, but tagging is arguably a necessary evil solely for discoverability; I'd be surprised if anyone likes how they're implemented. I wish @bsky.app made tags independent of character limits (inputted in a separate field) and hid them behind a button akin to Flickr.

What would actually be great is if the tags were, as you suggested, in a separate field that doesn’t count against the character limit AND they were not shown in posts. Seems like that would satisfy both ”sides” — No visible tags bothering those who don’t like them, yet still available for search.
