I've created a labeler for the game dev industry here on Bluesky, but first, it's time for a bit of tutorialisation... WTF is a labeler‽ 🧵

Labelers are services that can add labels to posts, accounts, and other content on Bluesky. Originally, they were designed for moderation, like flagging inappropriate or harmful content. 🚫

Labelers can also be used for vanity labels! Think of them like achievement badges for your posts. Imagine having a "Pixel Art Master" or "Indie Dev Champion" label on your profile, or labeling your devlog posts with "Bug Squashed" or "Feature Complete!" There are a lot of cool possibilities.

You can subscribe to any labeler through their profile page. Just hit the subscribe button to see any labels the labeler has applied to accounts and posts. They're also stackable, so you can mix serious moderation labelers with fun vanity ones.

Now, back to @ozone.birb.house: it's a new labeler that applies game dev industry labels to accounts. It's a great way to identify and connect with others in our industry! The current labels include: * Game Dev * Game Studio * Games Journalist * Games Podcast * Games Publication * Games Publisher

Want one of these labels? It's super easy! Just ping the labeler (@ozone.birb.house) and I'll get you sorted. 👌 If you have ideas for other game dev labels to add, I'm all ears! Ping or DM me with your suggestions.

If you only see the labels once subscribed can you add a 'games player' label?
