thanks for the feedback. what would you say makes it less clear? using numerals for the month?

booo

If you're trying to convince your friends to spend time on Bluesky rather than X, maybe show them this. X is not "the public town square" or about "free speech." It's "just what Elon Musk wants you to see." If you see stuff he doesn't like he'll step in to make sure you don't see it for long.

@atlast.byarielm.fyi looks cool! will it go live soon? excited to see it

if we built a twitter archive importer so you could find people you know from twitter on @bsky.app, would y'all use it?

ok we're back

we're working on getting search back up, hang tight

An unripe monstera deliciosa fruit in the afternoon sun. Can only be eaten once the hexagonal scales fall off on their own. Otherwise, major ouchies.

monstera deliciosa. hopefully tastes more deliciosa than monstera

you can send them to me — thanks!

totally understand that. we're still working out exactly how this will be set up and rolled out

also note that it will be run as an experiment until we're confident it's a solid benefit to everyone

thanks for mocking this up. we've had similar discussions — there's interesting stuff to explore here that could give posters a lot more control vs. other platforms

yep, disagreement that improves the quality of the conversation is a good thing

it’s similar, but will be easier to access (not hidden in the “…” menu) and may also have a limited effect on recs for other people in your social neighborhood

dislikes will be private and no counts will be displayed. it's mainly a useful signal to help tune your own recommendations, and may have a light effect on recs that similar people receive

Bluesky's real product is quality conversation and connection. the app just delivers it to you.

thanks. that's exactly right — quality of conversation is the goal, not controversy

correct, dislikes are private

👀

this labeler is seriously amazing @stechlab-labels.bsky.social

we've reached 40M. time to roll out the midlife crisis features.
