As other platforms abdicate a responsibility to keep users informed, we're thinking about how to prioritize rapid information distribution, especially in times of disaster response. Here's one example. Behind the scenes, Bluesky trending topics are actually all custom feeds. Just like any custom feed, you can pin a trending topic, like the LA Fires, to the homepage of your Bluesky app. Now, you can easily see updates right when you open Bluesky.
I am frustrated by the media narrative around Bluesky focusing on politics instead of functionality. The other platforms have stopped being USEFUL for the average user, and Bluesky is providing a platform where the users have more control over their own experiences.
