Bluethread is back, sorry guys for the interruption!

Okay, I like Blue Threads and its ability to handle Essay long threads. Useful for journalism, complex topics etc interface is bare but easy to navigate. Simply copy and paste your diatribe in one window and it died the rest. @bluethread.bsky.social

It seems like bluethread is unavailable at the moment. It's out of my power unfortunately as the pythonanywhere website (which hosts it) does not work right now. I hope it will come back soon

Those that are new to Blueskys.....👇 A MUST to follow is for @bluethread.bsky.social It helps link your threads together ❤️ bsky.app/profile/blue...

If you're seeing "Invalid Handle" on your profile, this should resolve on its own — thanks for your patience!! 🦋

There is now a thread composer, integrated to Bluesky!

✨ Update v0.3.1 ✨ Bug fix for the MacOS users : - The button to close the popup windows should now display correctly - Font change

Are there people using Blue Thread on MacOS? I'd like to ask you to test something (very quickly), because I don't have a Mac.

✨ Update v0.3.0 ✨ It's been a while! A big update today : - Hashtags ! They will now create links - A default language is automatically set when you open the page : it's chosen after your browser's language (you can still change it) - Bug fix : some images could not be uploaded

🧵 Pessoal com saudades dos fios do Xuiter, achei uma dica super legal através de um vídeo da @ellecross.bsky.social! 😄 Vou passar o passo a passo para vocês: 1️⃣ Acessem o perfil @bluethread.bsky.social e o site: https://bluethread.pythonanywhere.com/ 2️⃣ Conectem sua conta aqui no Céu Azul (1/4)

Welcome newcomers! Despite the fact there has been no active development for the last months, Blue Thread is still up and running ⚡ I still plan to add new features, but I'm too lazy right now ahah 😬

Hi ! 🙋‍♂️ Blue Thread is a website which can post threads for you! Here is how it works : - Log in with you bsky account - Type in a long text - The text is split into 300 characters parts - You can edit the posts and add pictures - When you're done, send the whole thread in a click! (1/2)

Hi! I've been pretty inactive the past few months and it's been a while since the last update, but I think it's time I continue to improve Blue Thread. Plus hashtags just arrived officially on Bluesky so I guess I could implement them

Il y a maintenant plusieurs, voire parfois plusieurs dizaines de threads envoyés quotidiennement avec @bluethread.bsky.social ! C'est satisfaisant de voir que ça sert aux gens, avec des profils assez variés. Ça parle d'aviation, de la situation de l'Ukraine, de recherche scientifique, c'est cool !

Happy new year! I wish you a lot of long, interesting threads ☺️

Hi! Please fill the ALT field when posting pictures on Bluesky. With Blue Thread, after adding a picture, click the ALT button to open a pop up window, and describe the picture in a few sentences. It helps visually impaired users to know what you're talking about. Thanks!

✨ Update v0.2.8 ✨ A few improvements for those who talk a lot 😁 - If you type a long text that exceeds the height of the input field, the field expends as needed - Same thing for the field where you enter the alt text, it expands as needed (up to 1000 characters). (1/2)

✨ Update v0.2.7 ✨ Mentions are there ! Whenever you add a Bluesky user (for ex @bluethread.bsky.social) in a post, it will create a mention to their account (as expected), if that account exists.

🎅 Oh oh oh! A little bonus update has arrived!

A bug prevents mentions to work, so this feature is disabled until it's fixed ! 😬 The other new features (links from urls, and better editing without removing the images) are still there 😊

I think I found what happens. Mentions to users are not working so please don't use them for now :( I'll update the app to deactivate that feature temporarily.

It seems if you add multiple links / mentions to users, it can sometimes cause an error, so please tell me if that happens so i can fix the bug ! 🤗

✨ Update v0.2.6 ✨ Two big features today : - Urls and mentions will now create real links ! - Editing the text (on the left) does not remove the posts images anymore ! (1/2)

There haven't been lot of updates recently but a big one is coming in the next few days if everything works well. With that the main drawbacks should be fixed, and i think it will be really cool to use Blue Thread for a variety of use cases.

Next step is turning urls into real links. I just did some tests that were encouraging 👀

✨ Update v0.2.5 ✨ Sending image has been greatly improved ! - You can add bigger files, they will be compressed before being sent to respect Bluesky limitations (2000x2000, 976 KB). - Ne need to select all images at the same time anymore, you can add and remove images as you want in a post.

I have made some progress to implement image resizing and compression before sending them to Bluesky. This means you could choose large images, they would get compressed (client side) and be added in your posts. Until now they were simply rejected. (1/2)

Hello fellow Blue Thread users! If you have a few minutes, can you answer a few questions : - Do you often use BT? - What do you like the most about it? - What do you like the least and should be improved? - What feature do you think is missing right now? Thanks!

Je me permets de vous rappeler l'existence de @bluethread.bsky.social, que je suis toujours en train de développer. Si vous souhaitez poster des threads plus facilement que post par post, alors ça peut vous être utile 😊 Et maintenant on peut mettre des images !

✨ Update v0.2.4 ✨ New pop-up window to add and edit the alt value of an image ! Describing a picture is important for accessibility. The ALT button becomes green when the alt value has been filled in.

✨ Update v0.2.3 ✨ 🖼️ You can now post pictures in your thread ! 🖼️ And add an alt text too to describe them ! This is quite experimental, and there are a few limitations. Make sure you read the following posts. 👇 (1/5)

I... may have good news for this weekend

Exciting news: We’re taking another step to making Bluesky an open network for public conversations. Around the end of this month, we’ll release a public web interface. With this, you’ll be able to view posts on Bluesky without being logged in on an account.

Great app for 🧵 threaded posts bluethread.pythonanywhere.com (use new app password generated in bsky.app) Thank you @bluethread.bsky.social !

✨ Update v0.2.2 ✨ Improvements on the languages list menu : - The list is increased to 142 languages 🌍 - Fixed the flag emojis that didn't display correctly on Chrome - You can now type in some letters in the field and it will filter the list !

It seems there is an issue and the login process doesn't work at this time on Blue Thread... Probably a library that changed again and made it invalid, I'm looking into it 🔎

✨ Update v0.2.1 ✨ When sending a thread, you now stay on the same page ! It opens a popup window which gets updated when the thread has been sent! (or tells you if there was an error)

✨ Update v0.2.0 ✨ - You can now choose if you want to number the posts (like it was before) or remove the numbers to fully use the 300 characters. - New footer with a link to the GitHub issues at the bottom of the page

I understand some of you would be able to publish threads without having a numbering at the end of each post (1/10 etc). I personally prefer to know how many posts there are in the thread to know how long it's gonna be. What do you think?

✨ Update v0.1.9 ✨ Small update to fix some bugs 🐜

Btw, I have used @bluethread.bsky.social to post this! :D It's so easy to use aaaaaaaaaaaaaa You can check it out here: bluethread.pythonanywhere.com

✨ Update v0.1.8 ✨ - The interface is now in english - After the thread has been posted, it shows you a link so you can check it directly

✨ Update v0.1.7 ✨ - If you refresh the page when typing, the thread is not lost anymore ! It's saved locally (in your browser). - The "cut" button has been deleted, it became useless since the thread is cut automatically when typing. - A new "clear" button has been added to clear the current text

📢 Hi everyone ! If you're using the automatic translation on your browser, please disable it on Blue Thread, as it can prevent sending a thread ! (and it often doesn't translate well anyway) Sorry about this inconvenience, I will fix it soon so that it works better.

Blue Thread is back online! If you could post small threads and check that everything behaves normally, it would be helpful! Thank you to those that signaled the issue and sorry again about the confusion! @ellecross.bsky.social @palila.bsky.social @gotthemunchi.bsky.social @9r7g5h.bsky.social

✨ Update v0.1.6 ✨ The issue where a thread was sometimes posted on another account is (hopefully) fixed.

Hi, Blue Thread apparently has an embarrassing issue where sometimes a thread is sent on another account when the two are logged at the same time... I prefer to deactivated the site until I fix this bug! Sorry about that
