we're testing a new beta version of the Notifications tab! it has new tabs to help you notice priority notifications, and it uses new grouping logic to reduce noise (e.g. when one person likes a bunch of your posts). disclaimer: it's a beta, not a final version. send us your feedback! :)

20K people have added 60K profile links in the first 24 hours! we pushed an update with some bug fixes and will keep polishing. thanks all for the feedback.

some folks reported not being able to use certain adult-focused platforms (like onlyfans and fansly) — there was an internal miscommunication and these were accidentally added to the list of disallowed domains. this is now fixed! but you may need to refresh your app to get the update. 💙

please feed the artists. there's a green button now

we just pushed an update to search so it favors recency more, which should give better results for topical things, notable people, news, etc. might need more tuning, so give it a try and let me know what you think. props to @treethought.xyz for this update

we have an idea for communities in the app that we're calling "spaces" — places where people can gather around shared interests or social groups. here's a peek at some early prototypes. these are explorations, not polished or final. looking for feedback, esp from community builders 👀

similarly, if your group uses multiple Atmosphere apps (like Bluesky for posting and @grain.social for sharing photos), it would automatically show up in all those apps for the people in your space. this is a big part of what would make spaces different. do yall find that part interesting?

if you want new people to find and join your space, you could choose to make it discoverable. if you do that, new potential members could find it by searching or browsing.

creating a space can help you build a more direct connection with your audience or social group. when people join your space, they could be notified about new conversations by default. they can turn this off by pressing the bell button.

you decide who can join instantly: anyone, people you follow, people who follow you, or nobody. anyone else can request access. you decide who gets in. people who can join can read posts inside the space. after joining, they can post into the space.

inside a space, you post like you do on Bluesky: short posts with photos, links, and replies, visible only to members or people who can join the space. are Bluesky-style posts what you want inside spaces? or something different like long-form posts, forum-style (non-branching) threads, or chat?

you can create a space with a few taps. give it a name, choose who can join, and you're in. after creating it, you can customize further — choose a cover image, an accent color, and more.

in the Privacy and Security section of the Bluesky app settings, you have the option of requiring others to be logged in to view your posts. when enabled, this breaks link preview cards — e.g. if you share your post link somewhere else, the link card won't appear. that's not great, so i propose...

thread numbering was hit feature in beta, so we made it generally available. i'm personally enjoying it quite a lot — helps me decide which posts to tap in feeds. thanks to all who gave feedback during the beta. it really helped our team refine this before today's general release!

thread numbering badges now show up on posts in feeds! to see them, make sure you have beta features enabled. you can do that here: bsky.app/settings/bet... once that's enabled, you should see them on posts in feeds like in the photo below. let us know what you think!

big video update today! 🚢 now in beta: - you can upload videos up to 10 min long - video uploads should be much faster than before - upload progress indicator should be more accurate try it by enabling beta features here: bsky.app/settings/bet... may take a bit to fully roll out. lmk how it goes!
