I've started putting together a Starter Pack with folks from around the Swift / iOS community. If you see someone who's missing, tag them here, and I will add them.

Bluesky is built to make social more like the Web again, so we will never suppress links. Link to your writing, your art, your personal site — this is the social internet, designed from the ground up to be open and interoperable.
Hard to describe as a journalist how grateful I am to have a text-based app that does not suppress hyperlinks. I don’t know if people realize exactly how hostile the corporate internet has gotten toward news.

Some of my favorite articles on Obsidian, using AI, and compounding our knowledge through various Tools for Thought :)

Congrats on your new site, @tfthacker.bsky.social ! 🚀
Today I am launching my website as a collection point for all my writings, plugins, and experiments.

As a side note, this is an Obsidian Publish site. So I develop the site %100 in Obsidian and published it from there.

my mom named her kid (me) “蓝天” which means bluesky in chinese, so i called myself “jay” to become a bird instead, and then some birdapp company named their project “bluesky” and i ended up running it.
Tell us a true story from your life that sounds made up.

since this is coming up, I have nothing but appreciation for Mastodon and activitypub. We had another approach we wanted to take and that’s it

it’s pretty normal for folks to root for their communities but it’s not zero sum and we should be rooting for every baby turtle make it off the beach

There have been requests for a less technical explanation of federation, why Bluesky, why decentralization, etc. As the one non-dev on the team, I hear you! Please like this post to give me sense of urgency and desire for a more general explainer 🦋

The concept of being able to write posts without actually opening Bluesky is awesome. You don't get distracted by "the feed" but are still able to engage with the community when desired.

Separating consumption from creation.

Hi friends! As an intro, a few things I love:

❤️ creating things on the web
❤️ exploring novel UIs
❤️ turning data into meaning
❤️ empowering people with AI

I'm currently exploring novel UIs & playing with AI at GitHub Next. Before, I did client work with pudding.cool and built dashboards at startups.
