What a slap in the face

Bluesky popup reads Saved posts: Finally! Keep track of posts that matter to you. Save them to revisit anytime.

Real bookmarks are here! Except they're called Saved Posts! But the icon is still a bookmark! Just ignore that bit!

It doesn't look like the Bluesky API lets apps create bookmarks yet, so I can't build a converter to automatically transfer over your DM bookmarks yet... (1/4)

É mais rápido marcar a partir deste feed, assim você não precisa abrir todas as postagens das suas mensagens diretas!

...but you can go through the feed (bsky.app/profile/book...) and bookmark anything in there you want to keep. If it's added to the API soon I'll build a converter.

This account and feed will keep working for now, but I'll probably retire them in a few months. I hope it's been helpful! (2/4)

Good news! You can now delete bookmarks to remove them from your bookmarks feed.

You'll need to go into your DMs with me, then long-press on the message (on mobile) or hover over it and click the 🙂 icon (on desktop) , then use the 😢 reaction. The bookmark will be removed from your feed instantly.

YOU'RE WELCOME

(If you prefer, you can also 🗑️, 🚮, 👎 or ❌ to delete, but 😢 was the most appropriate of the default reactions 🤷‍♂️)

You can delete bookmarks now!

How to delete bookmarks 👇

You can then select 'Delete for me' if you want to remove it from your DM history as well as the feed, but don't do this until you've used the reaction! The bot that runs the feed still sees the DM, as it's only deleted for you - the reaction is what tells it you want it removed from your feed.

IT'S NEARLY READY!

OK COMING RIGHT UP

Scream "I WANT TO DELETE BOOKMARKS" in this thread if you want to be able to delete bookmarks, go:

Not yet I'm afraid. The cleanest way of doing it (deleting the DM) doesn't work because it only deletes it from your side of the conversation - the feed generator still sees it. I could maybe make it so if you resend the same post with "delete" as the message text it removes it

WriteToThem WriteToThem is a website which provides an easy way to contact MPs, councillors and other elected representatives.

If you think having to complete a facial scan just to send DMs feels just a little bit dystopian, now would be an excellent time to write to your MP:

I'm really sorry if this affects you. There are alternative bookmarking services which don't rely on DMs, such as the labeller from @bookmarks.bluecanary.dev or the pin feed:

If you're in the UK but unable or unwilling to verify your age, I'm afraid you won't be able to create new bookmarks. You will still be able to see existing bookmarks in the feed:

UK Online Safety Bill will mandate dangerous age verification for much of the web Under new age verification rules in the UK’s massive Online Safety Bill, all internet platforms with UK users will have to stop minors from accessing ‘harmful’ content, as defined by the UK Parliament...

If you're in the UK, you now need to verify that you're an adult in order to send DMs, including to this account.

This isn't in our control or a decision that Bluesky has made independently; they've been forced to do it by the Online Safety Act

Sorry, should be working now!

the new share menu might seem like a small update but it’s actually faster to bookmark posts with @bookmarkit.bsky.social now 👏👏
