This is a quietly outstanding anti-harassment feature. Good job, Bluesky.

Quick Tip: Don’t want people getting pinged when you post or reply?

You can turn that off by heading to: Settings → Privacy and Security → Allow others to be notified of your posts and toggling it off.

Yes. Still wrong of someone to attack me just for a video.

Just because it’s lost activity doesn’t mean it’s a bad platform

Bluesky is a protocol-first company. Our differentiating advantage compared to existing protocol efforts is a flagship consumer app demonstrating a competitive user experience ("no compromises" on UX) and a substantial and culturally diverse user base (not just devs and true believers).

Bruno Dias @brunodias.bsky.social · 11d

so is bluesky a pure proof of concept that's meant to wind itself down by people decamping for other atproto services, or is it a social media platform that bluesky inc owns and operates?

Remember, Bluesky is the only platform of its kind with NO ADS!

Fun fact: Bluesky is outperforming Twitter on conversions for my Kickstarter by 900%.

Despite it having the most followers of any platform for me, Twitter is converting at lower numbers than EVERY OTHER social media platform I'm using (Facebook, Threads, Instagram, Bluesky).

If you aren’t using @skeetsapp.com as your default app for Bluesky, YOU NEED TO! Cheapest subscription ever and the best use of my money ever!

Plus you can’t go wrong with custom app icons either 👀

Private IcedC81 🎃 @privateicedc81.bsky.social · 6d

@flashes.blue can we have custom app icons for the flashes app just like @skeetsapp.com?

Private IcedC81 🎃 @privateicedc81.bsky.social · 10d

Love the new icons @microsoft.com

Private IcedC81 🎃 @privateicedc81.bsky.social · 10d

What did I do?? 😭

Private IcedC81 🎃 @privateicedc81.bsky.social · 10d

Donations and my personal funds. Apps will include wallpaper apps, ai apps (maybe), and other apps that make you pay to use pro features. You shouldn’t pay for basic things, it’s ridiculous

LMAO Elon’s Mad that threads has more daily active users 😂

Gonna lose LOTS of money doing this, but it’s worth every penny! Apps MUST be free for everyone! 🙌

Private IcedC81 🎃 @privateicedc81.bsky.social · Sep 1

Today, I’m starting my app development company called Glacier Apps!

I’m dedicated to developing apps that are COMPLETELY FREE! No ads, no in-app purchases, NO SUBSCRIPTIONS, etc!

You should be able to use all apps and features for free, and that’s the goal of Glacier Apps!
