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! :)

Also new in today’s v1.136 update: iPad support! One of our most-requested features is finally here in beta. Try out the Bluesky app on your iPad, and if you see anything off, let us know under Settings > Beta features.

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 👀

alex benzer@alexbenzer.com

the bsky team is working on various ideas for creating smaller social spaces in the app. which use case is most interesting to you? 1. posting into "topics" that organize public posts 2. posting into "communities" or "groups" that can be public or private 3. posting directly to your followers only

You read our minds 😏 we'll share more soon!

what do yall think are the most impactful things we could do in the Bluesky app to support atproto builders?

danielleyuhan reposted

We want to make it easier for creators to link out and attract financial support, so we're exploring a new feature that lets you add links on your profile. They show up as buttons under your bio.

Hey 👋 we're looking for feedback on the language selector in the post composer. The way it current works is that if you switch languages and create the post, we save your last selection for next time. Would y'all prefer that, or have it reset to your primary language for each new post?

We want to improve standard.site link cards and would love your feedback! What’s working well today, what isn’t, or what would you like to see us improve? 👀 (Crazy ideas welcome)

alex benzer@alexbenzer.com

we're working on the v2 of our standard.site link cards. these cards currently link to both the article (top part) and publication (bottom part). they show a "Subscribe" button when possible, otherwise a "View Publication" button. what changes would you all like to see in the next version?

Now you can opt out of having your posts shown to non-followers in the Discover feed. We know not everyone wants to go viral. Sometimes you're just posting for your followers. This is one of a few updates we're working on to give you more control over your experience and help you find your people.

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!

so excited to get this in folks' hands and to see what people build with it! it’s been a lot of work getting here & i'm proud of where it's at check it out, bang on it, break it, see where it doesn't work. let's make sure this is something we're all excited about & can take pride in building on

atproto.comThe Atproto Spaces Alpha is LiveAtproto Spaces, formerly known as “the permissioned data protocol,” is a new extension to atproto that enables non-public data. The alpha is now officially open. Here’s how to develop with it and what to expect as we work towards the full release.

We're redesigning the notifications tab! 🔔 It's one of the most visited surfaces on the app, and a lot of you have told us it could be better. Here's a look at what we're exploring. 🧵

Also, when someone new follows you, you’ll now see “mutual followers” (the people you follow who follow them too). Replies show a preview of the post they're responding to, and images render smaller as thumbnails so each notification takes less room and more fit on screen.

The biggest change is tabs. All = everything, chronological. People you follow = just notifications from people you follow. Follows = a list of people who follow you, so you never miss a follow-back. Conversations = replies, mentions and quotes. Activity = posts from accounts you've subscribed to.

Some additional UX improvements include "today" and "earlier" sections so you know what's new at a glance, and like/reply buttons that change once you've responded so you can keep track of which conversations you've already answered.

We went through a ton of feedback you've shared. Big themes: important stuff gets buried (replies lost under likes, missed replies from people you care about), too much noise, hard to scan, and not enough control over which notifications you see. This design is our first pass at addressing these.

we're planning v2 of our standard.site integration in the bsky app the goal is to make the "subscribe" button work. when you tap "subscribe" on a link card, what should happen? e.g. - get notifications on bsky when new articles are published - see new articles in a feed or separate tab - more?

v1.127 is live! We're rolling out improvements to search over the coming weeks. You'll get more relevant results and more ways to find what you're looking for. The new "Filters" button lets you query and filter by keywords, people, date range, language and more. You can even share your searches!

Thanks Danielle & @joshuajfriedman.com for giving @brianlarossa.com & me a sneak peek at Bluesky's exciting new Communities spaces feature. LOTS of potential for #KidLit & other communities, wow! Customizable, different privacy options, more. See @alexbenzer.com's thread: bsky.app/profile/alex...

communities are coming to Bluesky this year. today, Bluesky is one big space. communities will be smaller spaces inside that where you can go deeper and hang out with people who care about the same stuff.

Bluesky launched in February 2023 as an invite-only platform. As of June 2026, we have 45 million users. For reference, that's almost the population of Argentina. Thank you for being here with us 💙 Here’s to the next 45 million accounts.

how do you want to see notifications improved on Bluesky? we're investing a design cycle into improving the Notifications page. tell me what would make this page more useful for you.

Seeing clips of all the Japanese and European tourists coming to the US for the World Cup and losing their minds over ranch sauce, free chips and salsa, and Walmart is absolutely sending me 🥺

Super excited for my first project at Bluesky to launch! (Sorry it wasn’t an edit button 😔)

Bluesky@bsky.app

Along with group chats, we've rolled out a new way to share your profile and invite friends to find you on Bluesky. Check your profile — you'll see a new share button. You can use this to create a personalized QR code other people can scan to more easily find (and hopefully follow) you.

Come help us build communities on Bluesky!
