display the block dialog if someone aggressively shakes their phone when viewing a post or profile. either that or do like a tickle me elmo sound

okay but genuinely being able to draw custom (interactive?) banners that way would be so cool.

or have a setting so they can be hidden by default. occasionally there's good art or information in gifs but 95% are low effort replies taking up extra space

tab on the app that's the faces of your most-beloved mutuals and their 2-3 most recent posts kinda like a feed reader rather than a stream

Regional feeds? I'd love to be able to "Denver" or something like that and get recent posts from that region. It'd be handy during storms and what not.

thanks! I'd love to do more with regional feeds but unfortunately ATProtocol doesn't appear to support a location field so identifying people connected to the region is tough

Eric Budd
sure thing. my regional feeds are a combination of a list of people I've assembled by hand (over 1,000) plus adding posts based on keyword

i would prefer if profiles didn’t show a “following” count at all and instead a “number of lists” count and a person could see if they are in any of your lists rather than if you are “following” them

feature idea: reverse mute hide your account from showing up in peoples’ feeds programmatically based on keywords in their bios, types of accounts they follow, or lists they are in, etc

threaded view needs to let you fold individual branches, otherwise one big thread devours the entire thing

On the mobile client ... on the first time someone attaches an image, prompt them about alt text and allow them to opt-out, not opt-in. And then give the suggestion on how to copy text from images, depending on OS, in the alt text dialog - taking inspiration from bsky.app/profile/blow...

ok ok ok now that I know they're supposed to be GOOD: custom feeds for notifications so you can set up a feed and get notifications for anything that pops up in that feed

tweety fish
I mean the feed infrastructure is mostly 3rd party, right? it's more that (I think? I dunno, I'm just some dummy) it'd have to interact with the app so that it could populate your notifications tab

tweety fish
but it would save bsky corp having to deal with power user/big accounts notification needs because, fine, set up (have somebody set up) a feed with the kind of thing you're interested in being notified of and now that's your notifs

semantic mute based on proximity to an exemplar embedding ("mute all posts similar to this") same but for search sort replies by entropy augment the little blurb that shows who follows a person out of my followers with who their typical followers are

dame@dame.is· 12 Dec 2024
more feature ideas: - mute people on individual feeds, but not globally - mute people on feeds, but not in mentions (i like conversations with some folks, but don’t like their main posts) - keyword muting on an account-level-basis (i.e. only muting the keyword when a specific user says it)

bluesky should add an “email list” lexicon that allows anyone to “sign up” to a profile’s email list, thus allowing anyone to begin collecting subscribers for an email newsletter and directly competing with part of substack’s feature set

Proactive filter for showing only replies that come from a given list. Usecase: I have a list called "people in my industry" and I only want to see replies to a skeet from people on that list. Toggle either for all replies, or a quick toggle on an individual thread.

option 8, okay i'll shut up now
dame@dame.is· 12 Dec 2024
another feature idea: localized firehose feed a feed that will display literally everything from the accounts i follow regardless of what i’ve muted, blocked, etc sometimes i’m curious what i’m missing now that i have all these filters and self-moderation tools in place

Create a "donate to ban" button and when people have collectively donated more than a certain threshold the person is permabanned and their IP blocked. Better than ads or subscriptions, pure profit on day one.

Instead of blocking the spam bots, Bluesky should teach them how to form real human emotions through reverse deep learning algorithms.

create user groups/communities by adding user moderation to feed following. the feed admin creates a feed like usual, but following teh feed requires approval from the admin. Posts in the feed arent private but replies to posts will only be visible to members of the feed

i want to be able to see all the replies to a post. but sometimes one reply has a million of its own replies and it turns into a whole side conversation that’s not relevant. i’d like to be able to collapse that convo so i can find where the other replies begin.

Russell
If the end of a post is just space separated hashtags, collapse the (e.g.) 3rd onwards with a “+X more” label in feeds. Show them still on individual post view. So in a feed, it might look like this: #BlueskyPost #BlueskyIdea (+ 7 more)

I'd like to create a new list *or* moderation list on the fly while adding someone to it, and I would like a shortcut to lists from their comment (right now at most I can directly block from the comment)

Show the number of people *who I follow* who have already reposted/quoted a post, to help me decide whether to repost it myself. Maybe brackets after the total reposts?

Scratch that. Show the number/proportion of my *followers* who already had that post in their timelines.

A bulk list manager so I can see who I follow that isn’t on a list. And ideally whenever I follow someone I can tag them into a list so I don’t forget. It feels like I’d be better off not using the following tab at all but at this point it would be a big undertaking without new tools or scripts

I’d like to see a preference setting to allow/disallow embedded posts, separate from the “must be logged in to view” setting. Maybe another type of threadgate so it could be applied to individual posts.

Display tiny user icons stored as 20x20 netpbm black and white bitmaps available over DNS from _icon._atproto.username (or over HTTP from... some file). This should just barely fit into the 500 byte answer limit for DNS, and it's textual.

local client storage for all those things that a distributed protocol makes hard to keep private like a note of WHY I blocked someone or the real name of a list I wouldn't want to use publicly (like 'reply guys I still want to see posts not replies from') *and* a button to save that and load it

I can do that... Where should I look first? ( Branch, probable similar components?) Can do a simple leaflet that allows you to select a point or a path in full screen and then shows the small map like a video.... Need to store up to 100 point coordinates (line string) in the database as with

you should have 2 feeds side by side and for each post index when you scroll you can pick one you like better and it hyper personalizes your feed in real time from the firehose based on your preferences
