Can Bluesky say every word in the dictionary?
I dunno but I plan to find out!

I made a website that tracks every single word said on bluesky (as of yesterday).

"Bluesky thinking" refers to ideas that are not limited by the current beliefs or norms of a group or society.

Thanks to everyone who came out to make this launch a success! Special shout-outs to our @bayme.sh friends for tracking the balloon to Pinnacles after we lost LOS and the @noisebridge.bsky.social folks listening at home!

Next up: scenic park hike to recover the payload?

i don't understand how to teach making things simple.

it's like people have this built-in resistance to it, i have no idea how to get underneath that. i just paired with someone on something and we deleted probably about 75% of the code and then it was good.

why is everything like this

bluesky should bring back invite codes

very easy to bootstrap trust in new accounts via the social network

very easy to prune offending subtrees

there are enough users now that it’s not a meaningful throttle on growth

Backscatter discourse, I’m so curious
someone editing their discord DMs a lot is a prosocial signal

it means they care about communicating well to you and are paying attention

more mixed in server channels, but i still think it’s a positive signal

IMHO:

Because Likes are (unavoidably) public data on Bluesky, there should be a Likes tab on our profiles as a reminder.

Not enough to warn people during onboarding.

Friction can be a good thing in many cases but this isn't one of them.

Likes feeling private but being public is a UX footgun.

An unordered / non-exhaustive list of things that helped scale Bluesky's infra efficiently:

+ Exiting the cloud (colocation)
+ HAProxy w/many Node backends
+ Go w/clever code
+ ScyllaDB
+ SQLite w/per user databases
+ Redis w/many instances
+ AMD servers w/many cores
+ Purchasing bandwidth directly
