Does anyone have any connections at Apple? Both @getskyscraper.com and @heron.social are getting App Store rejections for being copycats. The way this is being applied essentially bans 3rd party clients, which I doubt is intentional.

Which border style do you like better? A is a standard border. B has a slight fade into the card. Borders around cards aren't standard on iOS, so I wanted to see if something semi-neumorphic would work better with Apple's design language. 1️⃣ Border A 2️⃣ Border B 📊 Show results

I spent the weekend building out European football support in Boost Sports. Here's a preview of the new UI, highlighting the Premier League.

Read Position is now supported for Feeds with v3.28.0! This has been one of Boost Blue's most popular features, and I'm excited to finally bring it to Feeds. Premium users can turn it on in Feed Settings. Any Feed that returns posts in chronological order will remember where you left off.

Question for anyone who’s taken a look at the Sports page in Boost Blue (or who just wants to chip in from this screenshot): Did you think these cards were tappable? What did you think would happen if you tapped them?

Some personal news: I decided to leave the startup I co-founded two years ago. Today was my last day. I'm not sure what is next for me, but in the short term, I'll be dedicating 100% of my time to @boostblue.bsky.social and the sports-first social app I'm spinning off from it.

I already have a few improvements coming for this: a) The option in settings to disable automatic translations in Settings. b) Tapping the translate button on an auto-translated post will open the translate popup with original and translated text.

Big translation changes! Boost Blue now translates on-device instead of using Google Translate. Since translations are now free to run, they are no longer limited to Premium! Instead, Premium now gets automatic translation*: posts in other languages just show up translated, no tapping required.

We apologize for yesterday’s service problems. Bluesky experienced a DDoS attack—a flood of junk traffic meant to knock servers offline—over a period of 24 hours. We have upgraded our defenses in response, and we continue to monitor the situation. Follow @status.bsky.app for any updates.
