👋 Bluesky is an open social network that gives creators independence from platforms, developers the freedom to build, and users a choice in their experience. We're so excited to have you here!

We share Bluesky updates & news from this account. A quick orientation thread: 🧵✨

• Anyone can create and subscribe to feeds. There are 50k+ feeds here, like posts from mutuals, news, or cat photos!

bsky.app/feeds

• The Discover feed shows you posts that we think you'll like. Help us fine-tune it for you by using the "Show more" & "Show less" buttons in the three-dot menu.

• On Bluesky, you own your online identity. If you own a website, you can set that as your username. We highly recommend official organizations / brands to do this — it's one form of self-verification here!

• Tip: Your bsky.social username links automatically to your Bluesky profile if you paste that into your browser. Quick way to share your profile with friends! 😎

• Want to find your friends from other networks? Check out the Sky Follower Bridge Chrome extension built by an independent developer!
