We're gonna keep things running at bsky.dazzle.fm (not ready yet) so nothing gets disrupted. It's about $500/mo (lots of optimization work to get there given the firehose of posts), but it would be a shame to take down. Our new stuff is going to be super cool, we have a big update coming...

How have I only just discovered dazzle.fm? Seems to be Bluesky’s version of Twitter Moments. AI generated rather than human curated but still impressive. @dazzle.fm @trends.dazzle.fm

I wanted to take a second to give kudos to the @dazzle.fm folks. I feel like I haven't seen as much discussion about them as I'd like. It's a cool product they're building. It's basically a super-powered app view of Bluesky. Here's a little overview:
