People skeeting stuff.

Bluesky Social is a microblogging social platform being developed in conjunction with the decentralized AT Protocol. Previously invite-only, the flagship Beta app went public in February 2024. All are welcome!

Post Notifications from @posts.listifications.app

From the same creator (Dominik Picheta) as the popular Listifications utility!

~~This is an early beta, in testing phase at the moment!~~

Bluesky thread announcing the feature and instructions!

It is easy to setup by doing the following:-

  • Create a list of accounts you want to be notified about on your profile called “Post Notifications”! Not mod list!
  • Follow posts.listifications.app
  • Enable ongoing conversations from the account by sending a DM/Chat to it. No need to have chats open to everyone!
  • On the list detail the reason for it in the description, so accounts don't block to get of the list. Ask them to tag you for removal!
  • Having the list feed is a handy way to see the posts notified to your account.
  • See below for details on the limitations of the notification system at present!

Limitations of above!

  • You at present get notifications from accounts with a large following only
    • "set up so that only accounts with 1,000 followers are eligible"
    • "it's only top-level posts. You won't be notified when people repost or reply to others."
  • You don't need to have a large following yourself to use it.
  • Bluesky Thread discussing it.

How to find accounts that meet the criteria?

Use an analytics tool of your choice to find the followers of yours that have a large following!

Recently came across Blueview.app by Simon Holmes which gives that information.

Note:- Above is an extract from a new github page I created which also mentions bluenotify! Linked above.

I hate when you add an icon to the post, it changes the link URL, had to edit my post!
