A Quick Guide to the Bluesky Social Media App | Aspire
What is Bluesky and why are X users flocking to the app?
📣 I've started working on an Atmosphere alternative to Facebook Pages, targeted at local, non tech savvy communities. It's called @gravita.social - the force that unites us.
Gravita — Give your community a home on the open web
gravita.socialI know I’ve said this before and recently, but I’m over the skeuomorphic UX of Bluesky that makes it look and feel like a 20 year old social media app. I’m ready for new experiences for this kind of media/data. This information architecture is played out. Let’s try some new ideas with other clients.
In 2026, @bsky.app is focused on what’s next for open social: bringing together users for conversations around live events, creator and platform monetization, and private state, giving users truly private data while preserving ownership and portability at the protocol level.
there's 180?!?! of them listed here, not including general tools or bsky clients (those are separate collections). some are beta, alpha, or pre-release i also have a bsky list of apps/orgs that have accounts in my profile too. and @proto feed shows their posts + relevant posts from devs+enthusiasts
