Not only is the post season not included in ESPN's MLB package, but the AL and NL are streaming on different platforms?

I'm very excited to announce v2 of Sports is live, just in time for the end of the World Series! This is a major update, but the headlines are: • Support for the NFL, NCAA Football, Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, and UCL. • New UI with favorites, top stories, standings, and highlights!

Trying to encapsulate all sports with a single word was really hard, I tried to find stuff that also works for racing but that was even more problematic. Naming aside, I do play to support racing in some form!

Boost Sports has been a working title, and might stick around. But I want to explore other names that give the app it's own identity as well.

I'm starting the work of spinning Sports out of @boostblue.bsky.social, and part of that is coming up with a name for the new dedicated sports app. Anyone have suggestions?

There isn't, but there probably should be. I'm trying to wrap up the next version to catch the end of the World Series, but I'll make this a priority on the version after that!

I would have my camera on 95% of the time, and if I needed it off I'd make sure to specifically say so and apologize. Half the time his was off because he was driving from a chiropractic appointment to a lunch appointment, and this would happen for *investor* calls.

I used to work with a guy who would have his camera off 50% of the time, and yet would absolutely make sure to berate you for ever doing the same as "not being dedicated to the business".

Jaxon Evans @jaxonevans.social · 02/10/2026
I don't hate it either, but my thinking is that I want the app to have it's own identity, and for that identity to be appealing to people who are potentially unfamiliar with both Boost Blue and Bluesky generally. But Boost Sports is still a potential candidate.

I thought about this one, but skysports.com is close enough that I'm worried about legal issues.

Speaking of which, "Boost Sports" is a temporary name. Any suggestions on a name for a sports focused social media app?

v2 of @boostsports.bsky.social is conceptually done. I'll be cleaning up the UX and testing over the weekend, hoping to have it released next week. There are some really cool ideas here, very excited to show this off. After that, I'll start working on abstracting this out into a dedicated app.

You read our minds 😏 we'll share more soon!
Sneak peek at something the Bluesky team is working on. Screenshot shows the Bluesky app with the drawer open, with a new drawer menu item called "Atmosphere (Beta)". The content to the right shows what an activity feed of stuff happening in the Atmosphere might look like. All content is WIP, we'll share more soon.

Obviously I'm biased here. But @boostblue.bsky.social can monetize its users, it just doesn't have enough of them. Bluesky has plenty of users, and needs a way to monetize them. 🤝

Jaxon Evans @jaxonevans.social · 02/10/2026
Monetization idea for Bluesky: Promote third-party clients with a revenue share agreement, essentially turning them into unofficial "Bluesky Pro" services. That would mean giving up a lot of control over the ecosystem, but it aligns really well with the open ethos of ATProto.

A popular local chain called JCWs that has great cheese fries, and a special fry sauce. Fry sauce is a mix of mayo and ketchup served at basically every burger resteraunt in Utah. JCWS adds a bit of BBQ sauce and heats it up. 😋

For those following my “for Bluesky” fun with app review. I’ve updated my rejection and resubmitted to Apple after hearing from the Bluesky team. As a note for other devs, this usage is explicitly allowed in the Bluesky trademark policy in section 4.3: bsky.social/about/support/trademarks

I am not joking when I say this. Spotify, Apple Music, and streaming in general is over. My vinyl collection is now very, very good. You don't know yet because all all the vinyl bangers circulating today are only being played in my office. All my vinyls have solved infinite bangers.

Album covers displayed face-out on the lower shelves include Nujabes' "Metaphorical Music," Mac Miller's "The Divine Feminine," Lauryn Hill's "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill," J Dilla's "Donuts," Kendrick Lamar's "To Pimp a Butterfly," Nas's "Illmatic," and Madvillain's self-titled album.

"for X" is protected under nominative fair use, established with New Kids on the Block v. News America Publishing. (obviously, not a lawyer, but I did cite both of these points when initially getting Boost published)
000
Jaxon Evans @jaxonevans.social · 30/09/2026
It might be worth just resubmitting and hoping the next reviewer is better. Alternatively if you're going to appeal, some info from the appeal I was writing expecting a rejection: "for X" has been a standard App Store naming convention since "Tweetbot for Twitter" launched in 2012.

Jaxon Evans @jaxonevans.social · 30/09/2026
Probably good news here, Boost Blue just was approved. That suggests inexperienced reviewers rather than a systematic change in enforcement from Apple. @cameronbanga.com @tunji.dev

Hopefully, I guess. I submitted a Boost Blue update last night so we’ll see if it hits the same issue.

I’m still guessing this is an overzealous review team struggling with waves of AI apps. Some clarification from higher ups might help?

Jaxon Evans @jaxonevans.social · 30/09/2026
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.

Was this just after responding to the initial reviewer, or did you appeal?
