10+ tips and services for new Bluesky users
But what if you want to turn a Starter Pack into a list, so you can create your own window to follow? You can! Just use the Pack2List web app, where you can paste the URL of that Starter Pack and choose to follow it as a list. That means that all the content in one of those Starter Packs can be made easily available on your account without you following each person on the list.
More people to follow
One quick way to find other like-minded souls might be to find people you do not yet follow who are followed by lots of people you do follow. You do this using the Bluesky network analyzer, which you’ll find right here.
Use Bluesky like Tweetdeck
Anyone out there with a memory that extends further than a few of months might remember Tweetdeck, the incredibly useful tool used by so many professionals to read and manage Tweets. Something very like it is now available to Bluesky users. Deck.Blue is an app you can connect to an account that lets you explore your “skeets’ in a multi-column layout, so you can monitor all your posts, posts from lists you follow, searches, notifications, hashtags — whatever you need. You can also use Deck.Blue to schedule posts, though this is currently a fee-based feature. The tool also works with Buffer, so you can monitor your LinkedIn, Mastodon, and Bluesky channels in one place.
