Up with @pfrazee.com and @reedharmeyer.bsky.social on a panel where we'll be competing to be the biggest knucklehead on atproto - it's an honor just to be nominated etc

@mmatt.net brought my favorite streaming event of all time over to Streamplace, let's gooooo

I propose a compromise. 100 = 100 degrees Fahrenheit 0 = Freezing point of water

A thought reflection about the legacy of Alys the crippled bum blaster was not on my bingo card for #AKnightOfTheSevenKingdoms This show is pretty funny!

Say something nice about someone today: @thisismissem.social stood up for me last week even though she wasn’t “on my side.” It was a great demonstration of leadership and thoughtfulness

Say something nice about someone today: @ooga-chaka.bsky.social has been helping me find bugs with Skylight this week and has been very patient with me :)

@minakimes.bsky.social is a great representation of the city of Seattle. I also appreciate how patient she is with the people in her comments, it sets a good example for all of us!

we win together, or no one wins

I’m so proud of Sam Darnold for learning how to play under pressure the way that he has. It comes natural to some guys but he’s had to work at it, even this year. He went from throwing four picks against the Rams to having a clean playoff run. I find that really inspiring!

Dreams do come true 🥲

Emmanwori for Super Bowl MVP

The competition has billions of dollars, billions of users and deep political connections. Quit the crabs-in-a-barrel mentality if you care about all of our collective work meaning something in this lifetime.

More than old enough to be tried as an adult.

Skylight has been kicking my ass for the past five days. Basically all of the problems can be traced back to the changes I had to make when we shut down servers in November. That left some deep scars in this codebase.

skylight team offsite, but it's really just us in our respective houses staying up until 2am fixing bugs 💀 @reedharmeyer.bsky.social

@jimray.bsky.team @hailey.at FYI you can make the oauth-client-expo package Expo Go compatible. The big blocker was DPoP but Expo 54 added Worklets which would allow you to do the DPoP calculations in JS without blocking the UI thread. That + switching mmkv to secure store should do the trick!

I regret saying this, I don’t actually think that every app having a PDS is the solution. IMO some form of sub-accounts and account merging is more promising. I think having a PDS provider that you trust more than your apps is the way. I just also think people will want more than one account.

I’d say we tried the TikTok clone thing and it was just a bad way to go. Skylight v3 has overlap with TikTok but Skylight v1 was eclipsed by it. Ironically we are a more viable TikTok replacement today because we are more of a Bluesky client :)

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 🥰

Until @skylight.social is available in Europe you can checkout @bluescreen.blue to get a European TikTok-alternative that is fully interoperable with Skylight Social. https://apps.apple.com/de/app/bluescreen-for-bluesky/id6741334901?l=en-GB

Lots of invisible changes to Skylight today: blocks/mutes should be fixed main feed adjustments sign people out less fixed the image viewer First thing I’m focusing on tomorrow is Comments UI

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

Decentralization is not about servers. It’s about power.

I thought this subreddit had been lost to time.

Just curious...who's deleted/deleting their Tik Tok? #TikTok

Didn’t get edit profile fixed tonight, I’ll have to do that tomorrow morning. Biggest win: better filters for hiding NSFW posts #skylight

“You’ve hit your limit • resets 11pm (America/Los Angeles)”

TikTok has been broken all day. All of our videos are under review and their just about comic books. They bought it and immediately broke the site.

I’m so blessed I get to watch Seahawks highlights on Skylight while I fix bugs 🥰

1.4 million videos were played on Skylight yesterday 🤯 literally 3x from the day before. This increase was from all areas: +150% on sign ups +50% on returning users +40% on videos played (average) +60% on videos played (median) +100% on posts created And record low issues getting in to the app.

It actually happened

We’ve added a new option to Skylight’s dropdown menu: New on Skylight! It shows new posts on Skylight and it’s going to be full of new people trying out this social network. For those of us with established social graphs we can help out these new folks by reposting their content to our followers!

We set out to determine how many images of women and girls Grok created during its nudifying spree. What we found was “industrial-scale abuse,” experts said. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/22/t...

Tori: even if there is a small chance, we owe it to everyone whose not in this room to try. Me: we will, whatever it takes. Claude: whatever it takes. Claude: whatever it takes. Claude: whatever it takes.

I know I’m not one to throw stones here but TikTok is broken as hell. I’m rarely seeing anything that was posted this week. It’s a weird way for a social network to die…

Yes and I think it’d be great for “don’t show me too much news in one day” and have it work across your apps.

Sign up through Bluesky OAuth appears to be broken. @jimray.bsky.team @bnewbold.net @pfrazee.com

Somebody better get a screenshot of Mike McDonald smiling

It did! This was a 6000 line refactor that touched 90 files and I did it with Claude in a day. We moved from Jotai + a custom async state library to Zustand + Tanstack Query + Tanstack DB So far the only issues were a circular import and a race condition.

Just did a large refactor of state management in skylight. Let’s see if I can still make posts…

We have the mandate of god

chromewebstore.google.com/detail/margi... Bump our installs and reviews so Chrome treats us more serious and starts actually showing our extension in the search....

Why we shouldn’t have separate follow graphs (yet)
