Bluesky has added a built-in bookmarking characteristic so customers lastly have a technique to privately save posts on the platform. The replace is out now on Bluesky’s web site and app.
Bookmarks on Bluesky work just about like they do on some other service. Save a publish and you may revisit it later from the “saved posts” part of the app and web site. It is general a primary characteristic — there’s presently no technique to set up your saves into folders, for instance — but it surely’s a really lengthy overdue addition to the platform.
Thus far, Bluesky customers have technically been in a position to save posts through a workaround. Bluesky developer Jaz created a customized “pinned” feed that allowed subscribers to save lots of posts by replying with a 📌 emoji. However whereas this offered a helpful technique to save posts within the absence of an official bookmarking characteristic, it wasn’t non-public because it created a public reply for each save. Now, although, there is a helpful device to transform your beforehand “pinned” posts into non-public bookmarks. You can even choose to delete your public “pins” or go away them as is.
