O Bluesky, just like Threads (from Meta), may even have lost a bit of steam lately, but that doesn’t mean that it was also abandoned by its developers. Recently, the platform received a series of news that promise to make it much more complete and similar to the old Twitter (now called X).

The most significant news of the time is new tab of posts liked by the user, which, like X, is also located within your profile. Unlike the network commanded by billionaire Elon Musk, however, only the account owner can see his liked posts – at least in the official platform application.

According to the social networkyour APIApplication programming interfaceor application programming interface.”>1 public allows alternative client developers to add the ability to view posts liked by other users to their apps. Anyway, the novelty opens up the possibility for users to revisit their favorite posts or simply use the like button as a way to save a post.

Another essential resource for the operation of any social network has also been added in recent days: the notification support in your mobile apps. From now on, users will be alerted in real time about new likes, reposts and other interactions carried out within the platform.

In addition, it is also possible to notice that the app now suggest accounts for the user to mention whenever an “@” is typed when writing a post. In addition, the composer of the social network won a web emoji pickerwhich will certainly facilitate the creation of new posts from the desktop.

Finally, to deal with the large number of users who migrated to Bluesky after Musk announced that the X would no longer have an account blocking option, the social network chose to limit actions such as resetting passwords and changing usernames. The idea is to stabilize the network and make the user experience smoother.
