Is this happening for anyone else? Every time I try to login today, it says “Unable to contact your service. Please check your Internet connection.”

But every other site and app is working for me, just not Bluesky.

I just saw this post in my Discover feed, the profile picture was different and indicated that the person is live right now and when I clicked on it the pop-up from picture 2 opened. It also says that "The live function is currently in the beta test phase". My question: Was the feature already announced? Is it coming for everyone? Do we already know more?

since im primarily on tumblr & reddit ive never rly had a problem with random ppl/scammers dming me, however since I started an art blog on bsky random art blogs who I followed back will dm me for like no reason. obviously when someone does this I immediately assume its a scam bc it usually is but since idk its bsky and maybe ppl are friendly there I try and see if they will start scamming me before I block them. today another random art blog dmed who looked pretty legit to me having a dni/pronouns/regular posts so I dmed them back and they eventually (wellll, like immediately) told me they run a weird ai yt channel and that they want me to dm them on discord. obviously I was like yeahhh no….. but I havent blocked them yet - if I dont block this person am I like at risk of being hacked or whatever?? also should I just not respond to dms anymore/is interacting with these ppl at all putting me at risk?? Im kinda pissed off that like 3 different people have dmed me like this and it puts me on edge, I feel like I dont know anything about internet safety. does anyone who is good at being safe on the internet know what I should be doing to avoid problems

I am not sure what to do about my account on bsky. Since sign up I've had to reset my password every single time I attempt login. Each time it gives a "Incorrect username or password" and wont let me in until I perform a password reset. Couldn't find any settings that could correlate to it. My other two accounts login just fine. Any suggestions?

Still can’t post, like, comment, or repost on my main account.

I wanna share that I finally hit 1,000 followers on Bluesky and loving this platform!

Coming from Twitter/X burnout, the difference is big, the community here actually engages with content thoughtfully instead of dunking for clout.

But anyone else struggling with content scheduling?

I'm juggling client work + personal posting and finding it hard to maintain consistency without the robust tools other platforms have.

The decentralized nature is amazing, but feels like we're building the plane while flying it when it comes to creator tools 😅

What's everyone using for content planning?

Currently just using Apple Notes like a caveman...

Despite it being over a month since it’s introduction Bluesky’s age verification doesn’t work for me. I’m 21, my bank account is in my name, I have photoID that proves I’m 21 which the service doesn’t take for seemingly no reason and the face scan doesn’t work either despite the fact that I have a moustache. What exactly do I do now? Send Bluesky Support a physical photo of my Birth Certificate or something?

So, I have been trying to build my own personal feed to filter some content.

But I noticed that every single tutorial or reference just gives you ONE feed generator source.

And that is /app.bsky.feed.generator/catch-up

Which If I remember correctly, is the feed that shows in the "Discover" tab in your default home feed tab list.

But what are the other feeds?

I know you can obtain a feed from a list. But is there a way to obtain a feed exclusively from what your follow-list is?

And yes, a lot of people mentions " making a list " and work on that. But the list needs to be updated every time I add someone to my follow list, correct?

Unfortunately, due to (stupid) laws there, Bluesky is blocked in Mississippi. The costs are significant, and moreover, the way Mississipi's laws operates there is far reaching, as it involves having to track which users are children which goes beyond child safety laws, as well as requiring everyone to verify age, and not just for adult content.

Sigh...

Hey everyone — some days ago I ran a Reddit poll whether you would use a private bookmarks feature. I had 28 "YES" and 7 "NO", so I decided to implement it.

I just updated Tracker – Manager for Bluesky with some new features and improvements:

📌 Bookmarks – Save your favorite posts privately in-app (you can see how it works here).
📅 Advanced Filters – Now when filtering users by last post date both before and after options are available.

As always, I'm open to feedback or feature requests — your ideas really me help guide the next updates. 🙌

You can try it on both Android and iOS or contact me on Bluesky if you want to.

I live in the bum fuck of nowhere in Tennessee! Why is this effecting me?! Just how weird is Mississippi’s range that’s fucking me over?! I refuse to go back to Twitter!

I built an app to help you create awesome screenshots of Bluesky posts for crossposting and sharing.

https://postspark.app/bluesky-post

Tons of customization options—upload your own backgrounds, design custom themes, apply 3D transforms, tweak aspect ratios, annotate, add browser frames, and more!

You can also take post screenshots even quicker using chrome extension:

For the last couple of days, I’ve been getting an “internal server error” message every time I try to post. Anyone have any idea what that’s about or what, if anything, I can do other signing up with a second account? I emailed BS support and it was both worthless and insulting, assuming that I was doing something wrong. FWIW, I can repost other posts, just can’t post myself directly.

Looking to start blogging, and I would like to start my blog on my handle.

Or at least hide the content on skylight? I have some NSFW stuff posted on Bluesky that automatically got uploaded to Skylight when I signed in over there and I didnt want that, I'm not sure what skylights TOS are for adult content.

So a friend of mine dropped this message (on Discord)

"Someone used my Bluesky name to scam people.

Apparently this guy has stolen allot of money

Like over 10k

So I need to buy like 3000 worth of Bluesky bucks to prove it’s me"

Needless to say this is... quite confusing? How could someone scam money out of others with an account named after my friend, who, by the by, BARELY got followers anyway, so I'm a bit concerned my friend's DISCORD got hacked and he's trying some elaborated scam here. I asked some "only he would know" question but they are taking a suspicious amount of time to reply.

I mean... what the hell is "Bluesky bucks" anyway?

Hello y'all.

So, for some reason I can't see explicit content anymore and I dont know why. I'm sure I was able to see it cause when it was shown, there was an option next to the warning that would show the content if clicked. Now, when I see it, I can't even see and it just says that "It is an explicit content. This has been applied by the posts author."

I don't know why this is happening and if I am the only one having this issue. Also, I dont even know if there's a way to solve this problem.

However I would be glad if someone could at least explain to me what's going on.

Thank you so much for your attention.
