I know the reason actually - we still need to get the React Native community over here!!
6 85Seems like the kind of thing starter packs can help with! Looks like there’s one (1) React Native starter pack out there
Hey React Native folks! 👋
To make things more comfortable for you here, I put together a starter pack and a feed — check them out and let me know what you think!
Starter pack: bsky.app/starter-pack...
Feed: bsky.app/profile/did:...
#ReactNative
We can’t wait to get started 👋
1 5There's quite a few people who are still hesitant to make the swap over here or stay permanently. I think if/when certain features get implemented like uploading GIFs, sending media via DMs, and notifications for individuals (usually the lil bell symbol) we'll see a LOT more willing to come on over!
2 11not saying thats not true but I’ve seen the list of things that people are saying they’re waiting for change so many times over the last 6 months as we add all these features that I don’t think it’s a matter of just adding these features. once we add them there’ll be more
1 9Literally almost every single comment I've had when trying to talk up BlueSky has been overwhelmingly positive, especially in relation to mental health, but the same few suggestions...I wouldn't call em "complaints" personally, but those are like the Top 3 requested features, 4th is bookmarks
1 3--4th/5th is actually a tie between bookmarks and being able to privatize your account, but even once GIF uploads come along you'll see a lot more retention of people's attention here
3Any thoughts on why the React Native folks seem especially hesitant to come over here?
Yes we need this, i want so bad to ditch X
