The newest version of Spark is too dangerous to release.

We recommend using the Bluesky account you already have.

0.9.0 is out to testers ahead of a big announcement at #ATmosphereConf! 👀

We are in the process of taking down thousands of bots on our PDS. This effort is largely automated but all takedowns are reversible.
We support the ability for people, including those in Gaza, to raise money, and we encourage any legitimate accounts wrongfully taken down to use the appeals process.

Rounding out Friday, we have a @sprk.so theme for #AtmosphereConf website, by @knotbin.com

0.8.0 is out now with a completely redone story posting experience, along with multiple improvements to search, DMs, and a lot of bug fixes.

Try it out! Download the beta at sprk.so/downloads

Spark and Popfeed both allow you to crosspost to Bluesky directly in the app. I can't speak for them but for us, that's mainly why we ask for broad permissions.

who up poppin they feed 🙌

We'll definitely take this into consideration as we make more first-party feeds.
The repo linked is for anyone to create their own feed that all Spark users can see and use in the app, so someone could create their own feed that does that and more, just like you can on Bluesky.

Next up: we'll be focusing on bug fixes and polishing up user flows for the next few updates, while still adding missing features.

0.7.0 is out now!
🔔 Notifications are here! You can now see who interacts with your posts and comments and get notified when they do.
❤️ A private likes tab on your profile shows you all the posts you've liked.
🥄 On the home screen, your active feed is now persistent across sessions.

You love to see it... more of this, please.

For folks abandoning TikTok after its US takeover, consider using something like @skylight.social or @sprk.so or similar systems that give you a similar feeling but on an open protocol underneath so you'll never have to "move" again.

The reason you were signed out is because we switched to OAuth login. We recommend you use the same account as you use for your Bluesky account.
