Is there something I'm not understanding, or should these not be hidden from my feed considering they're not in any of the languages I have selected as Content Language? I keep seeing a surprising amount of content in languages I cannot read.
Seria interessante a incorporação de um trending topics na plataforma, de modo a sabermos os assuntos mais discutidos pela comunidade usuária, para além dos específicos disponíveis aqui
É complexo né? Como fazer com que a rede seja interessante e traga mecanismos que melhorem a experiência sem que isso acabe virando um modo de controle da informação no futuro? Não sei se tenho resposta
Pois é, acho que os TTs, querendo ou não, ajudam a tornar a rede mais interessante, possibilitam maior interação e descoberta de perfis em torno dos assuntos mais comentados (e essa mesma confluência pode cagar tudo, rs), além de dar um termômetro do que é assunto no momento, mas enfim, complexo.
O legal de rede descentralizada é que você não precisa nem ficar no site e app padrão, tem outros por aí que já oferecem essas coisas que você quer, da uma olhada e testa eles até achar o que gosta mais (importante, gere senhas de Aplicativos nas configurações) docs.bsky.app/showcase?tag...
Aqui qualquer um pode usar o algoritmo que quiser, e até criar seu feed com seu próprio algoritmo (tem plataformas qu ajudam a fazer de forma simples, mas pra criar algoritmos mais avançados é colocar a mão na programação, todas as opções da pra criar um feed novo e ter ele disponível no Bluesky)
Lembro que em vários programas de TV os TTs já foram usados ao vivo como parâmetro dos assuntos do momento na Internet. O que como vc disse é super legal mas tbm incentiva a manipulação. Enfim...
Except it didn’t. Upgraded & got the same error message. I tried googling it, waded through a bunch of unhelpful, outdated stuff & decided life is too short.
When you introduce video, please make sure there's an option to prevent autoplay. I can't use Instagram because I love still images and find auto video intrusive and unwelcome. I'd hate to have to leave here. It's been great so far.
A melhor coisa daqui é poder ver todas as línguas, a pior sem sombra de dúvidas é o tradutor, que precisa te levar pra fora daqui pra concluir o objetivo
Actually it's a bit more complicated I think. In both Firefox and Safari on my iPad copy and pasting in the download link redirects me to the homepage.
However... when I turn off Request Desktop Website in Safari, just for bsky.app or in Settings and then try, it properly takes me to the App Store
yeah it uses the user agent of your browser to determine what device you're on. my guess is request desktop site pretends to be a desktop user agent in which case we just redirect to the home page
We have a new bsky.app/download path that redirects users to the device-relevant app store. However, if you click the link in the app it tries to do a local navigation to a non-existent page and 40...
Just to clarify, I get the Page Not Found error I posted the screenshot of when I tap the link in Safari (in "mobile mode", Request Desktop Site disabled)
When will you be able to upload your own from a GIF file on your computer. Pretty please? (disclaimer: I didn't make this. MeisterMash on DeviantArt did and it's amazing)
Hi have you also added a way to disabled autoplay of these and—hoping yes—could you please add those instructions to this thread? Without it you’ve just made the website far less accessible for some of us.
O @bsky.app.social é demais!
Esse foi um dos pedidos q fiz! GIFs.
Pedi tb para podermos EDITAR o texto, para podemos SALVAR POSTS e para podermos compartilhar vídeos.
Tá bom demais esse céu azul!
When will you be able to upload your own from a GIF file on your computer and for it to be animated like Tenor GIFs. Pretty please? (disclaimer: I didn't make this. MeisterMash on DeviantArt did and it's amazing)
Can you add the ability to upload your own from a GIF file on your computer and for it to be animated like Tenor GIFs. Pretty please? (disclaimer: I didn't make this. MeisterMash on DeviantArt did and it's beautiful)
@bsky.app Can you also add the ability to edit posts and replies? I had to delete this reply and resend it multiple times because I noticed incorrect grammar.
I see they're using what I assume is Tenor's built in alt text (in the form of aria-labels). Will a customization feature be added for gif alt text? Also, once you go beyond the Tenor preset, will other gif libraries (or personally uploaded gifs) have alt text?
And not a single person in this thread, official Bsky included, added descriptive text in their skeet to account for the lack of alt text. This is a heckin massive step backwards for accessibility. I feel so disappointed that it wasn't even considered, but I should be used to that I guess 😕
I'm getting tired and I don't rely on alt text. It's fucking bullshit. Devs seem to not understand that accessibility needs to be baked in at the start of everything they do - not an afterthought for later.
GIFs = Fantastic.
A way of stopping them from autoplaying = 10000000 times better.
This is one of the things that makes Threads unbearable, autoplaying videos that you can't prevent from playing. Or even stop.
Any way we'll be able to mute them, or will I have to mute or unfollow serial GIF users on my feed? Serious question. For me they're just unwanted noise.
How is the accessibility going to work for these? What about alt text? If it's going to be from Tenor then that isn't alt text, its the upload name. Can that be changed?
For custom uploaded GIFs, will there be a alt text button?
Can we please... please... PLEASE get an accessibility team? 🙏
I have a suggestion: instead of having multiple posts in multiple languages, maybe you could create multiple bsky.app accounts for each language?
Something like:
🇪🇸 es.bsky.app
🇵🇹 pt.bsky.app
🇯🇵 jp.bsky.app
etc
Now can we get bookmarking? This is especially important for video since sometimes I'm at work without time for a vid and wanna bookmark and watch later.
I wonder "coming soon" is how soon 😅Also wonder how the storage will be dealt with. Would be personally totally fine with small/no storage, than either pay premium for bsky to host ya stuff or be allowed to host stuff yourself if you have a server and knowhow (kinda similar with custom domains)
Can you try not to make them as US-centric as those on Twitter.
E.g. I could not find one for "Nurse, he's out of bed again" which is a common British saying to indicate one's concern about the mental acuity of the original poster.
The downside is that it doesn't propagate across different sessions, so if you're using this site on multiple devices, you need to set it on all of them individually.
i have a couple of friends who are really into wrestling, and like to live-skeet when it's on...which i'm totally in favor of people enjoying what they like however they like...but it kind of takes over my feed a couple days a week, so it'd be great to just be able to mute the emoji they use
Ah,.. yeah I super get that. Speaking as an annoying fangirl myself, when friends are super into something that you yourself has no interest it, it can get old super fast and muting would definitely help a lot. Have you send them feedback about it?

yeah. one has tried to start using text hashtags, and i’m seeing a lot less of it. the other has basically told me to get over it and they’re not going to make any changes - which is fair, honestly. i don’t necessarily want people to change their behavior for me, i just want better tools.
I feel the same way & kinda don’t read bluesky at those certain times. Would never want to discourage someone from the thing they enjoy but, it’s a lot
Next stop, contact with @sonyplaystation.bsky.social and allow the PS4/PS5 API or whatever to be implemented in the site to share images,.videos, etc..
I am off out for a drink tonight. So I can’t join for the slagging off of the risible Lump by the Presidents of the USA, or the appearance of Smiths tribute act Gene. The laters episodes are even Darts free. Enjoy!
I would suggest that you disable auto-play by default. There are a lot of people out there with motion sickness and neurological disabilities triggered by flashy gifs. Just a thought.
Web-only change. Only affects the default the first time we init this setting. From that point on, it will be read from storage, as usual.
Test Plan
Clear local storage. Set "reduce motion" to true...
Yeah, but if I'm not using my personal machine, which is common, there's nothing I can do about it. There's also plenty of people who don't know about that setting. Other people might not even know they have a problem until they log in for the first time and it triggers a seizure.
Yeah those are some good points, and I think the autoplay setting might be stored in local storage so it's per-device not per-account
One thing that might be helpful to some is the @nogifsplease.bsky.social labeler, which once you've subscribed to it applies to your account, independent of device

Why are GIFs really that necessary, I find them kind of cutesy clutter fluff. I would rather just read someone's opinion on a subject without the added props. I try to avoid them at all cost. Thanks, I feel better now!
HELP, I just went through my settings and could not find a way to turn all these stupid GIFs OFF.
There should be a way to just HIDE them all.
Can you tell that I DO NOT LIKE GIFs?
Thanks. I actually just found it and turned GIFs off.
I don't think it was there the first time I was looking.
Maybe a Bluesky update glitch?
Or maybe I was momentarily blinded by the GIFs I had just seen!?
This doesn't work for me on the web client. GIFs are autoplaying. I tried unsetting and re-setting the accessibility setting but they're still autoplaying. :(
Please, is there a way to turn off all animation? I don't want any video to play without my specific permission, each and every time. I know I'm not alone in this preference.
Thank you for updating v1.79. You may not want to see it, but this time it's a bug report.
The "Share" function seems to be unstable. Thank you in advance.
Regarding the issue I reported earlier about the "share function being unstable," it became stable after I restarted my iPhone. I apologize to you for a fuss over.
Just 5 days after my first actual post, where I had to replace my GIF with a static picture... Well, I guess it's a good time to join for game devs who have a bunch of GIFs to post!
Oh, right, it's only for predefined GIFs. "custom uploaded GIFs coming soon". I should have read the full post more carefully. But that's what happens when you hype people with a not 100% accurate header line!
Wir brauchen solidarische Unterstützung: könnt ihr diesen Text bitte verwenden beziehungsweise Rehposten. Danke. @pfrazee.com could you please help? Since the new Update there are Problems with screenreaders. VoiceOver does not work anymore.
This is all very good, but we would appreciate it if you could add some features for us visually impaired people so that we can use the platform more easily with screen readers. When using BlueSky on the phone, it would be easier to navigate the posts with rotor gestures, like, reply, reshare;
likewise, when using BlueSky on the computer, it would be a much more accessible platform for us visually impaired people with features like going to previous/next post with keyboard shortcuts, liking, replying, resharing, creating posts.
next you can hook up to every other openly inaccessible service in the world and hide behind the existing inaccessibility as if you didn’t choose to liaise with open bigots
Yeah, that's supposed to move. Does it only work through a website? I don't want to fight a search engine for something obscure when I have it right here on my computer.
Nice. Hopefully blue-sky will be an app before long rather than having to use a browser..that will really boost it imo.
Leaving twitter is rapidly becoming a priority since it so heavily shadowbans and uses follower caps.
And we really need the meteorological community here; otherwise, we have to go to Mastodon or X for the best updates during significant weather events.
You forgot the accessibility. I can not attach an Alt-TXT to a GIF. Ideally, it should be included automatically, as it is in other networks. #alttext#imagedescription#screenreader
If custom (on-site hosted) GIFs & Videos may take a bit to implement could ya'll consider embedded links to IMGUR? That's by far and away the easiest site to post video/gifs/images to and if it can detect (and auto play) a video or GIF the way your other embeds do? 🙏 🙏 🙏
Annoying GIFs are one of the reasons why can't stand "X" If turning off auto-play also blocks even seeing a still image of the GIF, I'm okay with that. If not Bluesky just also became annoying.
Definitely looking forward to custom GIFs and videos! Thank you for improving this platform with features that, okay yes very much needed, are also what the users have been asking for!
thanks @bsky.app! do you think you could revive #circles for us please? ^-^ that and protected accounts and private messaging aswell would be great also! :D #bluesky#bsky
