Do you plan to add a verification process? Many of us are working to bring over governments at all levels and political officials. Thanks for your response.

Skosts

Master jujitsu move here

anything but "skeetso"

What do YOU prefer? [ ] posts [ ] skeets

I feel like someone wrote a book about that... Skeet..ches?

How about that one guy calling them "Farts"??

Let me be the ceo for a week

I say tweets, now and forever, like kleenex.

Skeets for life

SkySkeets

I would never call them skeets, that’s ew 😫

Why not just call them posts? That’s what they are. No need to be clever. Do people on Facebook call their musings faces? Books?

“There are two apps inside of us. One that posts and one that skeets. Which one wins? The one we feed.”

"This is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is perhaps the end of the beginning." --Second Battle of Los Skeets

Love it

I’ll let you skeet past the post on that.

Anything associated with shooting and guns will do an enormous damage to your reputation, believe me. Don't forget where the 'refuges' that are flooding your platform right now come from and what they are trying to escape.

No because if we called them skeets we would lose friends. Br we love the sentiment.

The wheel doesn’t need invented does it? - it’s a post 😀 Shame ‘pareidolia’ doesn’t quite roll off the tongue but ‘skeet’ is pure cringeworthy🥴

And one that calls them Tweets.

Clouds sound catchier IMO

hmmm, nah I would def unfollow

I think they need to pay Google to do that so I doubt that's happening.

@jay.bsky.team - what to call us residents here? Blueskians? What is it besides the generic "bluesky user"? 🦋x 18.7 Million

<getting out the protest signs>

“tweets” all the way. 🤣 But that will happen when @theonion.com also buys X formerly known as Twitter and migrates it to @atproto.com.

Skeets eh?

Posts and skeets cross path together... I see

Is there protection to artists and their art on here?

it’s great how we can just… have both and be peaceful

The Great Skeet (non) Secession

I’m still honoring @monsterhourpod.bsky.social and calling them Sploots. We will be the smallest, weirdest network… and no one will mess with us.

A third app for #beets?

💜💜💜

but i want to lose the friends that call them skeets.

That's the world I've dreamt of!

Oh crap I hope not. Bluesky is the “one app” service which is less confusing that the mastodon nerdstuff. Please try to keep this one consistent, as was Twitter.

To the windoooooowwwwww

“Skeets” is CRAZZZYYY 😂

Thank you for this platform!❤️ 💙📚

Can we have just an option in UI ?

This is such a baller response. Or, skeet if you will lol

I've come into this too late but I've decided to call them "chirps" even if it's just myself doing it. Chirpers gang unite.

Yay, shipping features to 2 versions! Devs must be happy :)

hello

“Post” saves one letter. It could make the difference in a…post.

One thing i noticed on insta and threads is that, if you reply or tweet, the timeline displays the contents related to our tweets or profile. But here it’s difficult to find like minded posts.

Please, do not sell it to elon🙌🏼

We could troll X/Twitter and call them chirrups.

I’ll use the one with iPad support. 🙂

Time to get rid of ‘skeets’, my blue sky friends. BLEETS has my vote. Because…. *Drumroll* 🥁🥁 You can’t beat a bleating bleet.

😆

Whim, exot, cloud, utop, flare, Kite, aerial, fancy, tease, blues...

I love “flutters”

Yeet!

This place has the juice lol

👇🏼

I'm calling them scoots

Because we post on a wall, I think we should call them Harveys, or Wallbangers.

So, not bloots?

Likes your tweet. Twitter don’t exist and tweet are the word to describe what you do when writing … tweets

I thought they were bloots.

Call them signals. Or tweets. No one is using tweets.

Or, as we like to put it, those who are correct and those who are factually wrong, intellectually vacant, morally depraved, and unspeakably hideous. #SkeetsForever

Can we just invent a new word, burn the ships and move on. Butterfly motif, so how about flut, that flut was awful, I’m fluttering about the election. Mind you flit sounds better to me.

Does it mean that someone can actually create another app based on this network and call it bird app ?

“Skeet” has a unique meaning in Newfoundland English. I’m definitely not posting “skeets” on Bluesky.

Just posts, ez, to remember

I call 'em bleets

lol

Someone needs to fork the Bluesky iOS app and make so it replaces the word “skeet” with post. lol

😂

I love how you always find the perfect memes!

Yeah IMO it has to be a (near-)synonym for “talk” or “communicate”, otherwise it just doesn’t feel right. This is why #babbles is the future, tho I’ll do anything but s***ts 🥰

I think skits might be fun - although autocorrect might intervene 😬

A long time ago, I worked on a game that would replace uses of the word "fuck" in the chat with "love". Utterly pointless but also kinda funny? Anyhoo, I think there should be a client-side moderation feature that lets you replace whatever words you want, like posts to skeets or vice versa.

Only iOS? Bleh...

skibidisky …….. i’m sorry

SKEETSKY

Skytes!

second time i've ever had to mute a thread on here thank you whoever added that in

bleets or skeets… as long as theyre here and not “you know where” on Voldemusk’s app

Blueskeet

👑 how does it feel to win the internet

This is an outrage! I thought social media was supposed to divide us! Besides, I prefer the term bskyts (pronounced biscuits).

Posts + skeets = poets

Hi, have you any plans to add in future or close future the Edit option?😶‍🌫️

People’s skeets… Have no end!!!!!!! I’m gonna be the King of the Skeeters!!!!!!!!!

Bluesky should combine functions for simplicity, not separate them. The internet was far easier to use in the early 2000s when it was more focused with basic html websites. Since then it has become really disordered and chaotic, an elaborate mess, with quality sacrificed for quantity.

No no no, this rivalry must last forever.

And when newcomers skeet they are Skittles.

finally the true purpose of the bouba kiki labeler is revealed bsky.app/profile/kiki...

Every time I hear someone calling a Bluesky post a skeet, I hear the lyrics to "Get Low" in my head. 🎶 To the window, to the wall. Till the... yeah I think I'll keep calling them posts.😳

Love this 🙏

We already have

that's so cheeky! i LOVE this platform!

What’s a skeet

I’m sure you’re tired of people asking occasionally but is there a plan for non-plc non-web dids?

@bumblingbard42.bsky.social you should be reading this amazing stuff! Network theory. 🦋💙🦋

I love this app so much, @jay.bsky.team!

This is applicable to my theory. This is pretty amazing #UIT

Yeah, I'm not sure how anyone could justifiably go into a discussion forum with this mindset. That is the definition of an echo chamber, right? So if I come and disagree with someone's logic for doing that, sure they could easily ban me and say I'm trolling, but they're the ones who lose.

Blue "we let the internet choose ONCE and we're not doing that again" sky

We call them Blueskies & #Skeeple

Let’s drop this whole Skeet thing shall we? I’m still calling them tweets 😂

I need a client app that labels magas skeeters... pesky things.

But the Discover feed is the Skyline, right? ^_^

Can u like my posts? Please

I prefer "flutters"....birds tweet and butterflies flutter.

you mean one that calls them skeets and one that really tries to not call them skeets but calls them skeets anyway

"Follow the gourd!" ... "No, follow the slipper!"

Though we all know they’re actually bloosks

In Spain some people are calling it 'mariposear' which could be roughly translated to 'acting/talking queer', and I think it's beautiful.

I've been calling them Bleets
