Hi guys, if you happen to have #Instagram, would you mind watching this reel to the end and interacting with it please? IG's AI thinks I am making content for fake followers, and I'm in IG jail now. So I need them to know real people are interacting with my stuff. www.instagram.com/p/DFA1ER_N2R4/

Genuine qu, not trying to troll. Also remember I'm from UK and not US so may be getting a different take. But why is Biden pardoning his son good? Wasn't there actual evidence of wrong doing, even if it being brought to light was for politics? I mean it's very different to just making up charges.

Does anyone on Bluesky actually know what the #algorithm is? I have a steady stream of followers, but they seem to just follow and that's it. I've generally asked questions like the one quoted and I only have one person that I know liking it, and no replies and no answers. bsky.app/profile/wher...

Question for #photography peeps on here. Anyone have experience with shooting both #FullFrame and #MFT / #M43? I know in theory, ignoring DOF, the same exposure settings with higher ISO is likely to have more noise, but want to know about whether it is noticeable for real world shooting / viewing.

Get the feeling this is just as bad as X, but on the other end of the political spectrum? There's vitriol and abusive language on here directed at those who voted Trump, calling them cockroaches. Political disagreements are expected, but dehumanising language is the beginning of something worse.

Thanks for noticing.

If you see this, repost a favourite photo of the sky that you've taken recently. Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS) in the night sky above London. #Comet #C2023A3 #TsuchinshanATLAS #Astrophotography #BigBen #London #ElizabethTower #NightPhotography

I'd have thought the increase in users would make this place more "social", but sadly doesn't seem to be so. Interactions and conversations feel so forced and contrived. I've only had what feels more like human contact with people I already know from outside of here. Otherwise it seems to sterile.

A quick explainer from @rose.bsky.team about what Bluesky is about if you've newly moved here.

The autumn colours are so vibrant this year don't you think? Was it the wet summer? Whatever it was the results are amazing #photography #autumn

Hi all! We had some downtime for Bluesky => fediverse last night, starting 10:15p PT, and fediverse => Bluesky this morning 7-10a PT ish. We've worked through the backlog and should be back to normal now. Sorry for the trouble!

To bridge your #bluesky account to million of account of #fediverse and #mastodon please follow @ap.brid.gy

Hi @kclepley.bsky.social, welcome to Bluesky!!! 🙂 Would you mind also following @ap.brid.gy please? This will allow your posts to also be shared to the Fediverse and will allow us who mainly spend time on there to also interact with you without needing to watch two different platforms.

@faustochou.eatnews.net If you follow the two accounts I tagged in my quoted post, you should be able to interact with me (and others) who are mainly over on the Fediverse like Mastodon.

Hi Bluesky, please follow me at @Howard.mstdn.wherehowardgoes.com.ap.brid.gy as this is my bridged / mirrored account from #Mastodon, where I usually do microblogging nowadays. If you also follow @ap.brid.gy, we will be able to interact with each other even though we're on different platforms.

Hi Bluesky, how are you all doing? I've been informed that if you follow @ap.brid.gy on here, your posts can be bridged / mirrored over to the #Fediverse, so that users on platforms like #Mastodon can also find you and interact with your posts if they have bridged / mirrored their accounts to here.

@madalyn.bsky.social Hi Madalyn, could I ask if you could help test something please? We were talking about how "fragmented" communities are. I have been told if you follow @ap.brid.gy on Bluesky, it will allow people to interact with you from the Fediverse like Mastodon. Can we test this please?

So, I've just followed @ap.brid.gy as apparently I need to follow that account before I can interact with bridged / mirrored #Mastodon accounts on here. So let me test another post mentioning my bridged / mirrored Mastodon account: @Howard.mstdn.wherehowardgoes.com.ap.brid.gy.

@Howard.mstdn.wherehowardgoes.com.ap.brid.gy Sending a post to my #Mastodon mirroring account on Bluesky to see if I can receive them with notifications.

@Howard.mstdn.wherehowardgoes.com.ap.brid.gy Testing post!!!

I always love #London at #Christmastime. All the decorations look so pretty, and the dropping temperature makes these crisp winter days and nights, coupled with all the #Christmas decorations, really heart-warming. Shot with the #LeicaMP240 mounted with a #LightLensLab 50 mm f/2 #SpeedPanchroII.

@antd.bsky.social Oh hey, didn't realise you were on here too!

I would have thought this was just a joke if it wasn't posted by @hongkongfp.com.

Hi BlueSky. I'm a freelance photojournalist. I'm now moving into producing travel-related content. I would be grateful for introductions to the #photography and #travel communities on here so I have people to follow. Thanks! 🙏🙇

#ThrowbackThursday post to 2022 when a photograph I shot was published in a fashion mag... and not just Harper's Bazaar, but specifically the KZ edition lol. But Harper's Bazaar is Harper's Bazaar... I'll take that hahaha. #WhereHowardGoes #Photography #Photojournalism #Reportage
