Thank you for sharing that history! So glad that Blue(r) Sky(s) are here! It's such a breath of fresh air to be part of this community. Blue Kudos to you and your team!

📌

Cool story!

Greetings from Kyoto.

I'd love to see Polish 🇵🇱 UI available as well!

thank you!

Ha...

I would guess this is negligible/irrelevant at the moment. They had ±10M users last week; ±20M users this week. The thread mentioned "what's hot" used to qualify as 5 likes. It's still small but doubling in size in roughly a week is impressive.

Loving it so far & well done folks

…much serendipity in your journey… it’s truly quite exciting! …cheers to flying the friendly skies 🦋

Congratulations! And thank you for all the great work you've done to create this stellar community! 💙

Love this platform. I quit X when it changed hands.

I joined before the site hit 2.6 million but only recently started posting regularly. I think I was originally on a waitlist that turned into an invitation. I'm happy to be here, and I hope the site's culture remains like it is now!

Thank you!

In terms of timing, as an artist shifting geography, the word would be auspicious. The other word, coming from y'all on the supplier side, would be conscientious. Thank you for holding to your views. The last word? Overjoyed. 🦉🍁🪔

Hi, I managed to experience before it became public to all. I felt Bluesky was on to great things purely because of the straightforward approach of the user experience. And tried mastodon and .Post and so forth. Bluesky also feels much more structured.

This is the nerdiest thread I've ever read and I love it. I don't understand it but I love the vibe 🥰🥰

Me, as well. But I read it and try to learn something new.

Believe me, I remember kinda bragging to my parents that i had been made s buyer for s major dept store at age 25. Response: "that's nice dear"

I did like the one about the servers being named after mushrooms tho! Cute! 🍄

Many years ago I had a friend doing a Masters in ring theory. I remember him trying to explain it to his mother. She was attentive and encouraging, but she kept looking at her rings with bafflement.

I use computing & social media on a very basic level. But I have no idea how it works. I compare it to someone that can drive but doesn’t know what’s under the bonnet! Lol x

Is it possible to know how many of us are from Spain? For a few days now it has become a trend to be here.

Jay, it is people like you who give me hope for the future.

Ooh..Maybe we can have a contest on what to call Bluesky posts, and the one with the most likes wins!

It would be hilarious if skeet took off like tweet 🤣

é nóis

Thank you!

Love this ❤️

Please do #Bluesky ads in Brazil showing posts from users who switched from the Musky Swamp of toxicity to BlueSky. Re Brazil’s First Lady’s comments today on Elon Musk youtube.com/shorts/fZLzb...

I think you can use any name on an account...?

Congrats on your achievements! 🥳 And thanks. 🙏

I was just following what somebody else had suggested.. I suppose you're right. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I guess they'd change anyway?

Be sure Greece will be number four!!!!! We all got sick of this narcissistic rocket man breaking out b@lls all day long with Mars and anti communism!!! Also we tried to leave Patatas and Sotiropoulos back but these cockroaches found their way in!!!

I remember trying to set up an account. It wasn't easy, and Twitter was so by mistake. I stayed on Twitter until a couple of weeks ago. Geez, what a hateful place. I've now deleted it, and I could be happier.

Trying to get more Aussies on board. Things take a while to trickle down here, but we eventually get it.

Norway is flying in! Lots of Norwegians are disconering Bluesky as the number 1 place to jump in from X, the x-place to be. Thank you for an informing tread.

I just joined a few days ago. I left Twitter about a year ago and have been on Threads. I’m loving it here. I hope you add an edit option. Sometimes our posts don’t come out as we expect so an edit button would really be helpful!

Great job! 蓝天。

Thank you for creating this space. So thankful too the whole team ❤️ My mental health needed this app more than I realized 🥹❤️

Thank you for the immense upgrade from twitter!!!

Hope Italy will join the party soon 🇮🇹

Wow amazing this just seems so much better than Twitter

1.

Back in the day when skies were grey and not blue (again sorry 🥹)

Are you open to a quick chat to discuss the position? I’d love to learn more about the organization, and share more about my own qualifications. I look forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Rejoice Obosi

I cannot believe we are at a point so quickly to be able to say "back in the day" and it still be a decent period of time *post-pandemic* (feels good, though!)

And now?

It is possible to monitor topics and keywords through an API?

Can’t resist.

@adantie.bsky.social, who is the best freshman college roommate ever, also loves Alf!

📌

I'm from Spain. ALF was a phenomenon on national TV (we only had two channels). It was broadcast on Sunday afternoons when we were partying. I programmed the video recorder to watch it when I got home. You've won me over with ALF.

We need an alt app icon that’s a silhouette of Alf

📌

Love this 💚

Alf - so the eating cats part is true! 😉

14. People have built really cool use cases of custom labelers, including games! There's a TTRPG class labeler.

"a part of" "The TV character Alf has long been" "Bluesky's lore."

😆🤭🤭

Omg I have to show you my Alf. I have always loved brands and merch. The classics. Like Alf.

You must follow @alfsplaining.bsky.social - the World's Number 1 Rated ALF-based Podcast, and indeed come on the podcast and talk about the importance of ALF in the greater scheme of things.

📌

This is not the most important part of this journey.. but to me it’s my favorite. I love ALF. Thanks Bluesky.

@apepusekatt.bsky.social

📌

"has been a part of bluesky's lore", masterfully avoiding the details here

Treading on dangerous ground with this one. @faineg.bsky.social is out there somewhere.

This explains a lot.

I adored this tv show.

Alf seeing all the cat pictures:

Amazing

@skowalow.bsky.social

I love Alf! Got one for Christmas many many moons ago

Alf is awesome. One of my first favorite TV shows! What a legend to have baked right in.

I love Alf

o feed do gugu

Somehow the What's Hot Classic feed still has the same... ah... unique vibes as it used to.

Love that

I have to be honest, most of what I say struggles to get five.

This is just an incredibly adorable anecdote. Thank you for sharing it with all of us!

Yay, I got 5 likes! Thanks everybody, super exciting 😀

🍀

Could've named it "what's in the air" or "what's flying".

So I'm totally useless for algorithm for social media since I never use the like button? Oh well.

@camharlacher.bsky.social @theothertbow.bsky.social should we bring it back?

If there are no other replies along the full loaded depth (where it "truncates," which doesn't change based on this), it puts the self reply straight underneath. Otherwise it indents. It could be smarter by only indenting where non-self-replies show up. It's open-source tho, go suggest a change! 😉

The other view does apparently collaps a thread after 10 self-replies with a "continue thread..." link, which is definitely missing in the threaded view where there's no indication that the thread goes on... Hope they add that to threaded view, but it being still "experimental" there's hope :)

I disabled this experimental feature for exactly this reason :)
