Bluesky adds the “Followers’ response option only”

Bluesky social networks start a competitor X, on Monday Rolled Outside a new update to its application, it now includes Added recently One of the option of “followers only” to restrict responses to your posts, as well as the “search posts” feature for user definition files.

Although the first helps to distinguish between the application and competitors such as X and Meta threads, the latter adopts a feature similar to that that X (then called Twitter) It was added again in 2021.

The “Followers only” option is to add a welcome to many Bluesky because it allows them to limit their conversations in their contacts.

The preparation is particularly useful when viral content goes and attracts attention beyond the usual rule base. In many cases, this can lead to a “collapse of content”, as people who do not understand the meaning of the original publication begin to harmonize, confuse your responses and accumulate. This was a common problem on Twitter/X, and ONE Bluesky hopes to avoid now.

Compared, X users can choose between a group of response controls, including “everyone”, “accounts that follow”, “verification accounts”, and “only accounts that I mentioned”. You can also publish to specific societies you are a member, which also limits their arrival.

On topics, users can choose between “anyone”, “definition files that follow” and “only mentioned”.

Bluesky users who want to enable the new feature can set their default setting for all their future posts in the application settings section within the reaction settings.

In addition, the newly added search feature can help you to find a user’s profile finding a specific post when you know the person who composed it.

To reach both new features, you will need to update your application to version 1.98. (In the case of reply options, if a user publishes their response that does not follow you, he also did not update his application, the response may still pass – but it will not be shown on the original poster if they were “only” followers “.)

The application update also includes some slight changes, including improvements facing research and other repairs.
