Desperately want the ability to search "from:robhaisfield.com keyword" @pfrazee.com so I can weave my long-term narratives. I currently need to do a lot more scrolling than I'd like.

Newsfeeds are ephemeral, and prioritize content based on recency.
My narratives are long-term, evolving over time. This is why I aggressively quote posts (QT) myself - what if people missed my bangers when I first posted them? What if I update my beliefs later, or a past thread is useful evidence?

Request: cross-posting service for Twitter->Bluesky. I’m probably not going to post actively in both places, but would love to crosspost here to help bootstrap chatter (I do for Mastodon).

This recency indicator is a link + if you're on the specific post's page, its URL is eligible for copying too

I was going to start a wishlist thread for improvements to the webapp but so far Phil's got most of them covered in his thread!
my current top bugfix reqs:
- remove force-crop on images jfc
- fix cards for external urls
- make search work (+ from: keyword!)
- make linkbuttons ctrl-click for new-tab

So far, my web app suggestions:
- keyboard controls (navigating pictures with arrows, Ctrl+Enter to post, probably something else)
- emoji palette + maybe emoji suggestions when you type the colon symbol (I go back and forth to a Twitter tab to get the emoji I want)

I really hope I can join the dev team here. Only a day on this app, and it feels so fresh and the opportunities so unbound. It would be exciting to participate in building it

On my next Bluesky setup visit: Figure out how this is different from the other app.
Some initial thoughts:
- What's this protocol they speak of?
- Is this different than say, Mastodon?
- What does the domain linking do?
- Is this a more programmable space? Who builds features? Github forks?

This was the tip I needed to verify my setup on Namecheap. Thanks!

try with just `_atproto` in the "Host" column -- looks like it might expect just the subdomain part there, not the fully qualified domain name

First step: figure out how to change my domain to www.brandontoner.ca — is there a setup guide for this somewhere? (my DNS skills are lack lol)
