"Live"

Bluesky is testing a new "live" feature. Currently working with a few test accounts, when streaming on Twitch or YouTube, accounts will show a red ring around their profile to indicate they are live-streaming.

We first saw this feature with the nba.com account, but Bluesky expects to roll this out more publicly, some third party clients are already implementing the feature.

App Version 1.102

A new release of the Bluesky app is rolling out, look for bug fixes and minor improvements.

Bluesky is expanding the rollout of its verification system. Notable and authentic accounts can apply for verification or to become a Trusted Verifier.
