Another day, another Skylight update ☺️ Shoutout to those who are watching this on Skylight 👀 You can find us @skylight.social #skylightsocial #update

I think you’re totally right that it’s going to look different than it did with Twitter but I think it’s actually better for open social. Twitter and Bluesky are mutually exclusive in a way that TikTok and Skylight are not! This is much more of a “wherever you get your podcasts” situation

A ton of bug fixes and feature updates in the last few days on @skylight.social ✨ Also some invisible changes @reedharmeyer.bsky.social noted: Blocks/mutes fixed Main feed updates Sign people out less Fixed the image viewer Many more to come! ☺️ Thanks for supporting our small team 🥰

LOVING the Skylight Social app for Bluesky. It's amazing, like the best of a Twitter and TikTok and IG feed all in one. This is how social media should be!! 😭

Cracking away at @skylight.social with @reedharmeyer.bsky.social today! Any requests? Leave ‘em in the comments. #skylightsquad #skylightsocial #tiktoksale

At this point in internet history, anything not running on an open protocol is a waste of time. I’d recommend @skylight.social for a TikTok alternative

Made a video on @techcrunch.com ‘s coverage of @skylight.social ✨ Shoutout to all the new users on Skylight who are actively helping us make this thing better! @reedharmeyer.bsky.social and I appreciate you all! 🥹 Thanks to @sarahp.bsky.social for covering this growth and the Open Social Web!

Given the influx of users from TikTok to Skylight, I thought a list of good video feeds was in order. It’s past midnight and I did this from mobile — will update with more tomorrow after I make slides for my committee mtg 💀🥲

Thanks to @sarahp.bsky.social for covering our growth this past week! A huge welcome to all of the new users on Skylight ☺️ So happy to have everyone on Open Social!! ✨ #skylightsocial #skylight #tiktok #tiktoksale

We're delighted to be hosting @richferro.com's NFL Playoffs custom feed in collaboration with @bsky.app today! This is a shining example of something only the open social web can do, and why open social will win 🧵

#tiktok is dead. Long love @skylight.social

hello everyone, it is 14° today 💀, the concert weather I've ever experienced, I'm going to post a video and checkout @skylight.social 👀 to see if it'll be a good clock app alternative and clean my house before the weather gets to be unbearable how are y'all spending ur snow storm weekend?

I started following @skylight.social when shit started kicking up. They’ve made a lot of progress, I’m hoping folks migrate over there

Tiktok is down. Skylight bugs we’re working on: - pop-up reset button - audio issues on Android - loading issues on profiles - some login/sign-up issues - “edit profile” errors - repeating videos/posts - inappropriate content - likes/unlike error @reedharmeyer.bsky.social right now 😂

Skylight has a ton of new updates! And we’re actively shipping bug fixes! Thanks to all the folks via comments and email helping us find the bugs 🐞 Shout out to @reedharmeyer.bsky.social for working so hard on @skylight.social ✨ #update #news #skylightsocial #opensocial

Many of the new ✨Skylighters✨ here follow me and I know that we are all collectively horrified with the news from Minneapolis. We don’t have “community conversations” yet in Skylight (coming soon). For that reason, I’m starting this thread ⬇️ Feel free to use this post to connect/organize/share

With the news of Canada, Australia and the EU potentially coordinating a ban on Twitter can we get a renewed push going to get folks off of Instagram (and TikTok) and onto @skylight.social?
