Something I want to challenge in management is the idea that someone must take on extra responsibilities for 3-6 months before they are promoted. As a tech lead (w/ reports) before the pandemic I thought, ya ok this is doable. But jumping into Eng manager during, I no longer hold this view. 🧵

Scrolling the skyline, it’s obvious that Black people and LGBTQIA+ people are the backbone of the content creation here. It’s not surprising, given the level of vitriol on twitter, that those are the communities searching for a better platform.

I just want to let the record reflect that @aliafonzy.bsky.social got me and a host of other big platforms on this app and she (as well as Black twitter) need to be apart of the conversation on making this app pop

Happy Friday my sweet friends! What are you excited about this weekend?

much too soon 😭

wrote up a quick tutorial for how to code + deploy an easy bluesky bot! emoji bot for what's happening in the big blue sky 🐥☁️@skies.bsky.social code: https://github.com/emilyliu7321/bluesky-emoji-bot tutorial: https://github.com/emilyliu7321/bluesky-emoji-bot/blob/main/TUTORIAL.md

Hello World! 👋🏿 First post so: - I'm looking for my next frontend developer role! Must be remote, I'm really interested in accessibility, maintainability and ethical, impactful work. - Started Historica11y, a newsletter on accessibility technology @ https://historica11y.substack.com/

I was so close.

Intro post 👋 I work at a tech nonprofit you probably like, but rarely post about tech/work. Instead enjoy: Ugly cats 🐱 Hiking 🏕️ Human languages 🔰 Brum being great 😌 Tech edu programs 👩‍💻 Me posting literally every single stray thought about whatever my absurdist new hyperfocus is🫠

Hey BlueSky…let’s see how y’all handle a Black woman with INFORMED opinions and no fucks to give I’m here to spread the message about and build community around building a supremacy, coercion, discrimination, and exploitation FREE future 💛✊🏾

Waking up to BlueSky is such a calming experience. It’s a vibe that can’t be replicated on the other app. I feel like I’m in the trenches with these devs reporting bugs to improve the experience for us all. Vs on the other app, I was just sad for those devs and hoped they could get out ASAP.

ALT TEXT IS FIXED!!!!!!!!!

Go follow Nyah, friends!!

Is the ALT text bugging out for anyone else on this app? Every time I try to write ALT text, my keyboard covers the “save” button and the text input box and doesn’t allow the text to be saved to the image.

How many days have you been on BlueSky? For me it’s day 3 and I’m NEVA GOIN BACK

This is a beautiful full circle moment. This year I am proud to officially announce I am a #RenderATLAmbassador! In 2021 my experience @RenderATL was my FIRST time feeling truly *at home* at a tech conference. It's a dream to represent and show up for this org. Tickets at renderatl.com

Petition for @aliafonzy.bsky.social to be a @bsky.app ambassador !!

Nyah is one of the best humans I know, truly.

Ok Black Tech People and Black people in general, please comment here so it can be a Black Follow Train. (only Black people pls, want us to have easier time finding each other) Rt 💕🫶🏾

Seeing all the Black techies on here makes my heart so full.
