Big video update! You can now post videos up to 10 minutes long, and they'll upload 2–3x faster. That's on top of the recent increase in maximum file size to 300MB. We can’t wait to see what you’ll create! NOW PLAYING: "Rent Control," by @shing.bsky.social and @jayackley.bsky.social

This is actually funny because it's the exact opposite 😂 The name changed after we added Fediverse support. We didn't want it tied only to Bluesky anymore. In case it's not clear enough: no Reels, no AI. Just a classic photo app. Even if you don't like Stories you can disable it.

I'm putting on my conspiracy theory hat: I wonder if the reason Pinksky app (that basically makes Bluesky have a more Instagram style UI, which I like to use from time to time), changes its name to Pink Leap because it's going to malform towards supporting AI slop, by adding shitty features.. 🤔

Bluesky raised the limit to 10 photos per post, and Pinkleap is already up to date. 🦩

v1.123 is live! You can now attach up to 10 photos in posts. We listened to your feedback and redesigned the photo carousel. It only appears for posts with at least 5 photos. Swipe through to learn more.

Yes! That's coming soon :)

Super interesting! @pinkleap.app I was hoping for combined feeds / crossposting which would be great for me. Are you considering it?

There's also some AT Proto features included in this update: 🌐 Custom PDS selection on login. 🏷️ Profiles now show the server name. 🦠 If you use @germnetwork.com, a link to your DMs appears when you tap the message button. More updates coming soon!

We just updated Pinksky to support higher-resolution photos in line with Bluesky’s new limits :)

Bluesky@bsky.app

v1.121 is live! We've increased the quality of photos in posts by doubling the max file size to 2MB and the resolution limit to 4000x4000. Plus, posts with multiple photos now appear in a carousel so you can show off your photography in all its glory.

No. Short-form video like “Reels” isn’t part of our plans. Our focus is on offering a classic, distraction-free photo app experience.

This post is unavailable.

New Year update is live 🎉 📥 Direct Messages 💌 Story replies & likes 🔍 Full-screen zoom + photo downloads Also some bug fixes for reposts and navigation. Get it now: pinksky.app

We’ve seen more people asking about this lately. Pinksky is just a photo visualizer. It doesn’t store data or create accounts. Anyone on Bluesky appears there automatically because the profiles are public. That's how it technically works and its the main difference from other social apps.

@pinksky.app hey, do all Bluesky accounts automatically have a pinksky profile, or is someone impersonating me there?

That said, we believe this should be clearer when creating a Bluesky/ATProto account. It’s already in the ToS, but many users join expecting a Twitter-like experience without realizing how different it really is. And maybe that’s the whole point of Bluesky’s purpose.

We considered creating an "opt-out" from Pinksky, but it would go against ATProto's core nature. Some people enjoy seeing photos, others videos or text. Fragmenting it would be like returning to the “silos” that traditional social media have built. It’s a very tough discussion.

The stories include reposts and links, but you can also choose to share photos and videos in this section. This decision was made to showcase as much content from Bluesky as possible. You can disable stories entirely in the settings. More options will come in future versions :)

i don't think having @pinksky.app show links in stories is good UX, it turns stories into just an ugly carousel of links

New update is here! What’s inside: ✨ Bookmarks (save posts for later) 👥 Multi-account support 📌 Pinned feeds Also a lot of improvements on navigation & video playback. Get it now: pinksky.app

Yes. We took some time to rethink some decisions on the project, review community feedback and see how ATProto evolves. Expect more updates soon :)

Luna@shi.gg

is this project still alive?

Looks fantastic, Jess! More customization options for profiles are coming soon. In the meantime, we're working hard to fix bugs and enhance app performance on Android and iOS. Thank you all for your patience and support! 💕🦩

okay this is REALLY promising! pinksky is an alternative wrapper for bsky, which you can specify for your art tags, without needing to do anything! my profile with my 'artpost' tag, looks great already?!

Tip: If you prefer not to use Pinksky but still want control what appears on your profile, simply add a #!hashbang to your bio. Pinksky will then only display posts that match that tag. Example: To showcase only posts tagged with #art, add #!art to your bio.

For those still experiencing login issues: App passwords are no longer accepted. Please ensure you're checking the domain in the authorization window when granting access to your account.

Pinkleap@pinkleap.social

Now you can login securely using the bsky authentication. No need to use app-passwords

Updates for the web app: - The login method no longer requires a password; you just need to authorize access to your Bluesky account. - Added alt text support for images. - Added PDS support. - Fixed minor bugs. 👉 pinksky.app

I played with this yesterday and it's incredibly cool. It also works extremely well as a progressive webapp if you install it to your home screen on Android — don't let the lack of a native Android version dissuade you from trying it!

Pinkleap@pinkleap.social

Pinksky is a photo client for Bluesky. Start using it at pinksky.social

After hearing some feedback: - Alt text will be prioritized in the next version - 2-step protected accounts doesn't work yet (but you shouldn't disable it!) - Multiple accounts will be added, but not a priority - "Reels" could also be added in the future, but it would be completely optional

For Android users: while Google is reviewing the app, remember you can still access the web version on both mobile and desktop

Looking for an #Instagram interface built on the #atproto ? Check out @pinksky.app - pretty much a 1:1 clone for web and mobile. Be sure to use an App Password, not your real password. These are created in Settings > Privacy and Security. Nice work!

You are up to date.
