A record number of firms plan to cut advertising spend on X next year because of concerns that extreme content on the platform could damage their brands, dealing another blow to the financial fortunes of Elon Musk’s social media company.
As new users downloaded the app, Bluesky jumped to becoming the app to No. 1 in Brazil over the weekend, ahead of Meta's X competitor, Instagram Threads.
“We’ve never seen traffic like this.”
Bluesky on Wednesday introduced the ability to hide replies, as well as a way to detach your original post from someone's quote post.
I'm begging google to just bring back YouTube Premium Lite and expand it
I think it belongs at the very bottom of the page.
It's really annoying and I don't trust it
I am excited to announce that I am joining the board of Bluesky, where I will be providing advice and guidance to the company to help it achieve its vision of a more open, more competitive, more de…
Feel free to create a new post. It would be nice not being the only person posting in this community
That's fair but I don't really know what that has to do with Buffer adding Bluesky support
Buffer brings together your Bluesky and other decentralized platforms like Mastodon and Threads, making it easy to manage your content and community from one place. Try Buffer free for 14 days or enjoy our powerful free plan.
It might seem really funny but TikTok is so far YouTube's most formidable competitor so far.
Bridgy Fed can automatically generate a Bluesky presence for your site. You can also use it to follow any site that has microformats2 or an RSS/Atom feed. Includes profiles, posts, IndieWeb interactions, etc. Source

He's a flawed character with, unconventional ideas about Jeffery Epstein and the nature of his crimes. Nevertheless, his ideas about Free Software undoubtedly changed the landscape of computing for the better.
I just saw an article about Google adding pop-ups during navigation to Google Maps.

What do you want Israel to do? Discriminate against LGBTQ or not?
What we don't want Israel to do is use LGBTQ people as propaganda, especially against Palestinians. It's unproductive, and it disgusts me everytime someone uses "Hamas would throw you off a roof" as a cheap gotcha.
This post could’ve been titled “Nostr vs ATProto”, but that really isn’t what I wanted to do here. While I will be comparing and contrasting them a lot, and that’s kind of even the point of writing this, I didn’t want to really pit the two against each other at all, and especially not with the title...
The Philadelphia Inquirer has. The problem is that Donald Trump and his supporters don't care what the editorial boards of the Philadelphia Inquirer, the New York Times, or the Washington Post have to say about him.
Because there are a lot of dishonest people who claim they're only criticizing Hamas, when they are actually calling for violence against all Palestinians.
"Harbu Darbu" is a perfect example of that.

People here just downvote anything they don't like even if it's in its own community
Depends on the server you’re on. Lemmy found popularity when a group of communists had their subreddit(s)banned
That's actually part of the reason why the original devs started Lemmy.
Bridgy Fed is one of the efforts aimed at connecting the fediverse with the web, Bluesky and, perhaps later, other networks like Nostr.
SteamOS used to use GNOME, but now it uses KDE.
Valve should have used GNOME on SteamOS so I could actually use it with the touch screen, and no on can convince me otherwise
The level of control Bluesky gives users with custom feeds is simply incredible. I could recreate the Mastodon newsfeed without any coding whatsoever.
All I had to do was create a feed on Skyfeed that
- Inputs @aendra.com's list of verified news agencies (+ a couple of unofficial news accounts)
- sort using the HackerNews ranking algorithm
That's all I needed to do. Here is my tweaked version of this (no login necessary)..
JSON
{ "displayName": "📰News (Trending)", "blocks": [ { "type": "input", "inputType": "list", "id": "aaao2rd2fwsmg", "": 86400, "listUri": "at://did:plc:kkf4naxqmweop7dv4l2iqqf5/app.bsky.graph.list/3jzmo456b6j2t" }, { "type": "input", "inputType": "list", "id": "aaaknghipawwq", "listUri": "at://did:plc:kkf4naxqmweop7dv4l2iqqf5/app.bsky.graph.list/3kc3ye6hmsd2y", "historySeconds": 86400 }, { "type": "input", "inputType": "list", "id": "aaae7ioefxgno", "listUri": "at://did:plc:sbl65o3w4adma7vbmovhyciy/app.bsky.graph.list/3krtw4uufwc2u", "historySeconds": 86400 }, { "type": "remove", "subject": "labels", "value": null, "id": "aaapxkh2aihps", "labels": [ "did:plc:bpkpvmwpd3nr2ry4btt55ack/ai-imagery" ] }, { "type": "sort", "sortType": "hn", "id": "aaaortezvepki", "gravity": "1.8", "sortDirection": "desc" } ], "license": "EUPL-1.2" }
You can now send direct messages (DMs) to people on Bluesky! Say hi to a friend, colleague, or a crush.
The spam reached Bluesky by first crossing over two other decentralized networks: Mastodon and Nostr.
Finally, a competitive YouTube alternative
To answer your question, it's inertia. People need to be forced of Twitter if before they join Mastodon/Bluesky/Threads
God I can't wait for that website to die already
He thought technology could solve online speech. It hasn’t.
What’s coming next? Over the next few months, we’ll be introducing some long-requested features.
TLDR:
- DMs
- Video
- Improved custom feeds (including in-app feed creation!)
- Improved anti-harassment features
- OAuth
We sincerely thank Jack for his help funding and initiating the bluesky project. Today, Bluesky is thriving as an open source social network running on atproto, the decentralized protocol we have built.
Good riddance.
Well, I didn’t plan it, but word got out anyway, and people discovered that the fed.brid.gy Bluesky/fediverse bridge quietly went online a bit ago. Over 1200 accounts have already turned it on so far and bridged themselves one direction or the other. It’s great to see so much early interest! https:/...
