"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.
