The modern research ecosystem of online tools and communities is controlled by for-profit companies. But we think that researchers should be the priority - not the product. So, we're announcing Aster ID: not-for-profit Atmosphere account hosting for researchers.

Now you can opt out of having your posts shown to non-followers in the Discover feed. We know not everyone wants to go viral. Sometimes you're just posting for your followers. This is one of a few updates we're working on to give you more control over your experience and help you find your people.

Instructional image titled "Hide your posts from non-followers in Discover" accompanied by a screenshot of the "privacy and security" options from the Bluesky settings menu. "Ask apps to hide my posts from algorithmic recommendations" is toggled to the "on" state.

We're redesigning the notifications tab! 🔔 It's one of the most visited surfaces on the app, and a lot of you have told us it could be better. Here's a look at what we're exploring. 🧵

"All" tab that shows all your notifications in chronological order.

"Follows" tab that shows you a list of people who follow you, so you never miss a follow-back.

"Conversations" tab that allows you to view mentions, replies, and quotes all in one place.

"Activity" tab that shows all the posts from accounts you've subscribed to.
