Bluesky is finally about to add video.
The decentralised social media platform flagged the coming update on Friday in a post. Bluesky first announced it would be adding video in May, along with DMs.
Bluesky didn’t specify exactly when the video feature will roll out or what it will look like, promising “more details soon,” but in May, the company said “it’s looking like the v1 of video integration on Bluesky will be 90-second clips that you can share on your posts.”
Bluesky also announced some “anti-toxicity” features this week, including the ability to detach quote posts, hide replies, and the ability to filter your notifications to only receive updates from people you follow.
Earlier this year, Bluesky added a “stackable approach” for content moderation, which lets users essentially run their own independent moderation services.
In its most recent report, Bluesky says it’s sitting at 5.8 million users, offering an alternative for users on competitor X (formerly Twitter). The platform, which was invite-only for its launch, already had 3 million sign-ups before opening up to everyone in February. Meta-owned competitor Threads said at the beginning of August it crossed the 200 million user mark.
