Post to Bluesky with tenfeeds
tenfeeds connects to Bluesky through Bluesky's own sign-in. You don't need an app password.
Status: in testing. tenfeeds is testing posting to Bluesky. Your Accounts page shows if you can connect it. See Supported platforms.
Connect
- In Accounts, pick Bluesky.
- Type your handle in Your Bluesky handle, like you.bsky.social.
- Tick the box and tap Continue to Bluesky.
- Log in on your Bluesky account's own sign-in page and allow tenfeeds.
tenfeeds never sees your Bluesky password, and you don't need to make an app password.
Account requirements
- Handles on your own domain work too. Type the full domain.
- If your account is on a different server than Bluesky's, that server has to support the same sign-in.
- tenfeeds keeps the connection active, so you don't need to reconnect every few months.
What you can post
- Text-only posts.
- Up to 4 photos.
- One video.
A post can have photos or a video, not both. Links, @mentions and #hashtags become clickable. A mention that doesn't match a Bluesky account stays plain text. Bluesky posts are public.
Settings
Bluesky has no extra settings.
Limits
- Text: up to 300 characters.
- Photos: JPEG, PNG, WebP or GIF, up to 4. Bigger photos you upload in tenfeeds are sent as a smaller copy. Photos sent by the API or an agent must be 2 MB or less.
- Video: up to 300 MB and 10 minutes. Bluesky only lets accounts with a confirmed email upload video, and it has a daily video limit.
- Per day: tenfeeds stops at 300 posts a day per account and waits at least 2 minutes between posts. See Posting limits.
Common errors
- Couldn't find a Bluesky account for that handle: check the spelling and try again.
- That handle isn't verified as the account's handle right now: type the handle exactly as it shows on your Bluesky profile, then try again.
- This Bluesky account is deactivated or suspended: tenfeeds can't post to it.
- Bluesky signed tenfeeds out, or the account moved to a different server: connect it again. See Reconnect an account.
- Too many special characters: shorten the post a little.
