Bluemoji! 💙

Minor update to the spec: Unicode can now be used in the short colon-delimited aliases, the rkey of records should be a punycode approximation of it.

Will be releasing a new version of the facet soon which enables this (as well as the emoji management webapp, hopefully! 🤞🏼)

This is so unbelievably cool -- 3rd party client that uses @moji.blue custom emoji for reactions!!!

Not sure how to add new ones yet, but maybe it means I need to finish that Bluemoji uploading/editing/management interface... 👀

Merged RFC001 today ✨

I guess we're back.

This project is on hiatus until further notice.

Thank you! I'll tweak that later today.

Draft RFC 001 - Bluemoji spec by aendra-rininsland · Pull Request #1 · aendra-rininsland/bluemoji This is the initial draft of the Bluemoji RFC. Constructive feedback is very much welcome. ✨💚 Please see rfcs/0001-bluemoji.md.

Update on RFC-001:

Sharing has been dropped from first release and moved to a separate proposal. Fallback character has been dropped in favour of simply always using the alias text when the image can't be displayed. See:

Apologies for the lack of progress on Bluemoji recently, I've had a bunch of stuff to get through with three other projects before I can fully turn my attention it.

At this point I'm hoping to incorporate some of the excellent feedback on the RFC and release v1 of the spec in the next two months. 💚

Still collecting comment for RFC 001, will leave it open for another week — wanting to capture as much feedback as possible before moving forward (also been a bit busy with News Feed and XBlock admittedly!)

I've written a draft RFC for @moji.blue on the repo describing general use idioms and patterns, there's already been some incredibly good feedback — if you're interested in the idea and have opinions on things like cross-account emoji reuse and attribution, please look!

COMING SOON:

whatever the heck this is

First dotLottie Bluemoji record in the wild 👀👀 :partyheart:

The fact that this is an open platform where you can try wild moonshot ideas like this (I'm not on the Bluesky team, I'm just a simple gal who likes emoji and hates Twitter screenshots) is a hugely underrated aspect of this place. Can you imagine trying to build something like this on *Threads*? 🙅🏼‍♀️

🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

If you're playing with this, apols, I've changed something so anything you've uploaded will disappear from this because I was using the wrong lexicon ID for new items (please create new Bluemoji records in the blue.moji.collection.item collection, not the previous blue.moji.collection collection.)

Check the reference implementation for an idea how I'm planning it! observablehq.com/@aendra/blue...

Getting pretty close to an early implementation! 😘

This is a test message :blue-kiss:
