Skyline

Heads up - several of the bluesky apps that have been around for a year are not renewing their domain names & are either moving or closing down.

Check your bookmarks since they could become scam sites? @skyline.gay is another that's moving.

And thanks to the devs for posting about changes. 😎

Hey - we're switching domains to:

skyline.louisarge.com

I got skyline.gay for very cheap ($5), but the renewal was more expensive ($40), so decided to just put it on my personal site :)

Really appreciate how many of you still use it & enjoy it.

Appreciate it man 🙏 I love that idea. Amn't really maintaining Skyline, but ofc it's open source if someone wants to submit a PR

Thanks for letting me know!

Ahh yes - they don't auto update; a share link is basically just a link to install a copy of someone else's feed. Would you rather it only installs once & then you get the person's changes forever?

Good morning Swamilee! Happy to hear 🥰

Did you end up making a list? Try to press the share button!

Share the link! ✨

Should be easy, but I've been focusing on a lot of other stuff recently - are you a dev? Because Skyline is open source, so if you want to you can just add it right now :)

Thanks for the shoutout :)

Yes! They're stored on your computer. But you can share them with others if you want to :)

100+ people signed up yesterday 🫶🎉

Should we add more features?

Excited to see @skyline.gay lets you create your own timeline with personalized custom feeds and LISTS.

Hey! Meant to reply - thanks for the kind words. Actually means the world to me that you're enjoying Skyline 🙏 If you have some technical skills, you could try changing it yourself? Currently don't have too much time to spare for Skyline :/

glad it resolved! could just be because there were no mutual-posts recently-enough for it to find them. i'll need to take a look, thanks for sending my way!

Trying out @skyline.gay by @louis02x.com. It allows for custom algorithms and lists! It also allows for sharing your algorithms & lists and I can see it developing into a marketplace in the near future. The match/relevance percentage feature is also kinda neat.

They're held client side but soon we'll launch syncing, so they'll be backed up in our DB at some point. And uh... user by user 😬 As far as I can tell there's no better API yet 👀

@skyline.gay was mentioned on a podcast.

"ughhh what's that domain again 😬 ... skyline ... dot gay"

i'm dying 😂 here's a link with the timestamp:

Should've tagged you!

You can install What's Mid as your default tab on Skyline :)

There was a bug where some users would see an infinite loading spinner - sorry for the inconvenience, that has been fixed now!

Sorry about that - and thanks for testing! Can you share the list with me?

Just set up some Lists in Skyline - my timeline's gonna be so organized now!

.

.

And I'm not kidding - a lot of people requested lists!

P.S. be careful with loading lists too many times in a row! Bluesky will block you for 5 minutes if they see too much traffic 😂 Just keep your lists < 100 people, and don't refresh them all the time - you should be fine.

Should note this is still in beta! There might be bugs - you can help out a ton by creating different lists & just @-ing me if something breaks 🙏
