Talking of replies, replace 1.96 enables you to simply entry settings that allow you to management how replies on posts seem to you. Replies may be linear, that means they present up one publish after one other, or threaded, which suggests they may seem in indented threads (form of like how they seem on Reddit). You can even type replies by latest, oldest, most-liked, “sizzling,” and “random” (which Bluesky additionally calls “Poster’s Roulette”).
In case you select to set a customized area as your username, with 1.96, Bluesky may even reserve your outdated .bsky.social title in order that it could’t be picked up by another person. I want this characteristic had been accessible once I set my customized area — once I did that, I made an alt account that’s parked on my outdated .bsky.social title in order that it doesn’t get taken.
