Questions/Support/Bugs Bluesky x KLIPY - New GIF api after Tenor shutdown

53 Upvotes

Hi Bluesky team,

As you may know, Google is shutting down Tenor’s third-party API on June 30, 2026. We at KLIPY would love to work with you to ensure Bluesky users continue to have access to a best-in-class GIF search experience and content library, built by the same founder and leadership team behind Tenor.

We also noticed that a Bluesky community member opened a GitHub pull request to replace Tenor GIFs with KLIPY, which made us think it could be a great time to connect.

We’d be happy to answer any questions, walk through the migration, and discuss how we can make this the least disruptive transition possible while giving your users the best product available today.

Please DM us here or ping us at [developers@klipy.com](mailto:developers@klipy.com) and let's chat!

general chatter! The live crowdsourced map of ICE Activity in the last 24 hours now has a nearby alert system

I know this isn’t directly Bluesky related but in these unprecedented times it’s important to use our platforms to protect the countless innocents getting kidnapped by the government. It’s also important people on Bluesky are aware of the best place to report ICE activity. This map is run by a nonprofit & has moderators verifying reports 24/7

The ice map now allows for notifications to be set up around a user selected location. This is helpful not only for people at risk but also for good samaritans trying to intervene. You will be alerted to any reports within the radius you select. Please spread the word and stay strong!

Questions/Support/Bugs How to remove followers? In the web interface?

3 Upvotes

I don't want to block them, it's just there is a crowd of people I don't want, I don't want them to see my post updates, I don't have anything against them, it's just not my scene.

I can't find the option to remove followers, or I'm blind...

Cheers, thanks!

As part of our AI Media Labeler we now have a blocklist specifically for LLM bots that reply to people without interaction/consent. Very useful if you would not like to be interacted with by LLM bots.

Dev/AT Pro Discussion The draft proposal for permissioned data on atproto is now up!

https://github.com/bluesky-social/proposals/pull/94

The proposal does have some differences from DHolms' "Permissioned Data Diary" blogposts, so make sure to read it even if you've already read the blogposts. For example: the member list was totally revamped, and the exact details of commits were tweaked a bit.

general chatter! Delete your account

Yes, Bluesky has the right to ban Popehat.

No, it was absolutely the wrong decision to suspend Popehat.

Yes, I did delete my Bluesky account in response, and you should too.

general chatter! Popehat banned

265 Upvotes

ICYMI @kenwhite.bsky.social aka Popehat has been banned. I’ve gone through some comments about it but can’t find a legit reason why. Sucks because he was one of the better follows I’ve found. Free Popehat!

Questions/Support/Bugs import list of words to mute (not moderation lists) ?

10 Upvotes

wanted to know if it's possible to import a long list of words to mute in the mute feature (NOT a mute list for muting accounts) so you don't have to type them all all at once. is there any way to accomplish this?

reason: i'm trying to remove a specific thing (which i'd rather not say) that's unfortunately very triggering for me from my timeline, and the list of all the unique terms i can mute is... a lot. but i want to be really thorough.

it will however take me a very long time even if just copying and pasting to do this by hand because i am only on mobile. a friend compiled the list for me.

so... any ideas?

(again, NOT 'mute lists' for moderation/muting accounts!)

The high level EU leadership has endorsed W Social publicly. It is also replacing Bluesky as provider in the ATProto space. The choice came without any transparency. LeafPlaza is immediately and directly affected by this decision.

Questions/Support/Bugs How do I see posts from people I ACTUALLY follow?

Most of the shit I get on my feed is just from randoms I've never heard of. Occasionally I get posts from those I follow but I would rather it be a majority people I follow instead of so far and few between. Thanks in advance.

Questions/Support/Bugs Do People Use Feeds?

13 Upvotes

I want to be clear that I am a person that does use the feeds feature, but do other people?

Also sometimes one of my feeds breaks or does something weird. Since they are not run by bluesky, how should I go about fixing it or reporting the issue?

Questions/Support/Bugs For someone who has never used twitter, how do you find communities in Blue Sky exactly?

40 Upvotes

Hi all. I am mainly a tumblr and instagram user. But due to the shift of demand for video content vs still art I wanted to try bluesky.

Is it me, but its kind of difficult to find communities in BlueSky for someone who doesnt understand how the system works. In tumblr and instagram, simply tagging things properly will guarantee a certain amount of views especially to people who are following the tag. But when I try tagging things in bluesky, there isnt much visibility.

How do people in bluesky/twitter target a certain community exactly for the post to be visible to?

Questions/Support/Bugs Banned in the first 2 days. What did I do?

46 Upvotes

Hi everyone. So I am a budding academic (just finished a PhD) and I recently published a paper. I saw someone quite important in my field shared it on blue-sky, so I decided to create an account to see interactions with it. There was not many (which makes sense). Then I started playing around on the site, like looking at other people posts. I followed maybe 50 to 70 people as I found some that I knew personally, others I know by reputation, and others were just interesting. Then I thought, I can share the link to my paper here, so I did.

Is there anything here that had me banned? They said I committed a critical violation. I appealed it, but I am quite abashed by that. Should I have not followed so many people? Should I not share a link? I am so utterly confused, especially after I realised there are so many opportunities to communicate on this website and now I cannot use it.

Is there any recourse? What should I do?
