Japanese cluster over the past six hours. The entirety of the lime green section at the bottom is a combination of "Japanese Artists" and "Japanese Bluesky Migration"

potential EME alert 🚨- apparently the Japanese are signing up to bluesky in droves. If you check the newskies feed 99% of posts are now Japanese cc: @surfdude29.ispost.ing @laurenshof.online

not only do we need to break 'AI' into its various technical iterations (LLMs ≠ AI) we need to work out a way to break it into its *social* purposes because 'machine vision for conservation' & 'replacing concept artists' are concepts so far removed it's impossible to have one conversation at a time

I want a plug-and-play PDS hardware host for home: palm-sized hardware, under €100, connects to my home router, hosts 1-5 accounts. Arrives w/ IKEA-style instructions. Scan the QR code, web UI guides setup to create or migrate your handle. Done. Like internetcu.be but for #ATproto.

it's winter solstice and it's 24°C where I live. Not a single hint of winter, I didn't even need a coat outside 😶

On Tuesday night, you may have noticed something a little different on Bluesky. Here's a peek behind the scenes of how the election feed came together. Endlessly grateful for this collaboration with @wnyc.org/@gothamist.com & @bsky.app!

the flaw with this research I think is that it's entirely based on the experience of new accounts. I am much more curious in whether the X algorithm is skewed toward the right for established users too and in other languages and countries, since they're the ones maintaining what little cultural...

Bit of a whirlwind news day yesterday, mostly dominated by the U.S. elections. This custom feed for the NYC mayoral race built using @graze.social showcases how to filter and focus during a live event. www.graze.social/feeds/10427

Give us feedback on what you want to see in Vancouver in March! Please share this far and wide: this is not just a tech conference, it's building the communities and shared spaces that we want together. #WeCanJustDoThings

something similar is happening today - the trending NYC Mayoral Elections feed in trending topics is hosted by @gothamist.com!

@surfdude29.ispost.ing someone decided to yolo PR private profiles on PDS 🧐 apparently uses private IPFS gateways?? Unclear what they meant but there's more context github.com/bluesky-soci...

is it just me or am I the only one who always look at the reply thread first before I do the replying? To me it feels weird to think that there are people who, uh, rawdogs their replies to strangers on the internet, to put it lightly 😶

We just crossed it. Yay! Congrats everyone and Happy Halloween!

Is social media dying? How much has Twitter changed as it became X? Which party now dominates the conversation? Using nationally representative ANES data from 2020 & 2024, I map how the U.S. social media landscape has transformed. Here are the key take-aways 🧵 arxiv.org/abs/2510.25417

We've got a new block: POLLS! And we'd love for you to test it out by voting on the top block you'd like to see us add — we've got a shortlist, but comment if there's another you'd put first :) Coming soon: publishing standalone docs to atproto, to more easily make one-off polls for anything!

My laptop screen is broken 😢

Brace for another wave of x refuges

have it installed on my phone and tablet! Now that the public beta is out, I can say a few things: 1. I have actually been building the app from source to test it for a while now 2. The app runs ok on my phone, but it's very laggy on my tablet, plus it has nasty layout shifts when scrolling. I...

curious - the trending "NBA" item in trending topics right now isn't served by @trending.bsky.app, but rather it's a separate feed called "NBA Conversation" hosted by @nbafeeds.bsky.social 👀

i wrote about atproto and why it matters

No. 10 Hurricane Signal just hoisted for Hong Kong. The symbol used to represent this signal is a cross, fitting for Rapture Day

#HongKong SAR #China due to #Supertyphoon #Ragasa now Signal 9, 10 likely later on This will mean 2 T10s in a yr, 1st time since 1964 if we do go Signal 10. #Wxx #Wxtwitter #TropicsWx #BlueSkyWx #台風18号 #TyphoonRagasa #NandoPh #Supertyphoonragasa

excited to share that we are following through on our earlier commitments and putting together an independent+neutral organization to house the DID PLC system, includes the directory service

i get tired by “oh no bsky controls 99.999% of everything” because imo that’s significantly a community-building problem and we don’t have data to know if it’s something architecturally inherent or more about fast growth dynamics

any version of tetris will do, but if I had to pick one, it would be Tetris The Grand Master 4: Absolute Eye since it fits all the criteria almost perfectly

3. If you see content that disturbs you, immediately (or as fast as possible) go and play 20-30 minutes of Tetris (or any other fast-paced game with your eyes sweeping over the visual field that has caused visual artifacts to linger when you close your eyes for you in the past).
