Bluesky finally has a private bookmarking feature

Bluesky has added a built-in bookmarking feature so users finally have a way to privately save posts on the platform.

Save a post and you can revisit it later from the "saved posts" section of the app and website. It's overall a basic feature — there's currently no way to organize your saves into folders, for example — but it's a very long overdue addition to the platform

Get This Item to Make Hollow Knight: Silksong Much Easier

Hollow Knight: Silksong received a lot of hype in the lead-up to its release on Thursday. When the long-awaited title finally came out, a flood of players rushed to download it, but it appears some caught up in the hype were not prepared for the game's crushing difficulty. But there is some help for struggling players near the very start of the game. Silksong protagonist Hornet is far more agile than the Knight from Hollow Knight, especially in her diagonal downward slash. But this angled attac

Netskope follows Rubrik as a rare cybersecurity IPO, both backed by Lightspeed

Cybersecurity is a massive sector, but startups in the category are more likely to be acquired than go public. Even Wiz, which for a time held the title of the fastest-growing startup, abandoned its IPO ambitions when it agreed to sell to Google earlier this year. In the past few years, there have been scant few significant cybersecurity debuts such as SentinelOne in 2021, and Rubrik last year. Next week, the sector is expected to add one more public company: the cloud cybersecurity platform N

Ex-Meta employee files whistleblower suit for alleged security flaws at WhatsApp

Ex-WhatsApp cybersecurity head says Meta endangered billions of users

WhatsApp’s former head of cybersecurity filed a lawsuit on Monday alleging that parent company Meta disregarded internal flaws in the app’s digital defenses and exposed billions of its users. He says the company systematically violated cybersecurity regulations and retaliated against him for reporting the failures. Attaullah Baig, who served as head of security for WhatsApp from 2021 to 2025, claims that approximately 1,500 engineers had unrestricted access to user data without proper oversight

YouTube views are down (don't panic)

Many YouTube content creators, myself included, noticed something in early to mid-August: views were down. After being on the platform since 2006 (though for me, not being a 'professional' YouTuber until about 5 years ago), I'm used to seasonal dips, adjustments after new tweaks to the algorithm or layout/design changes. But this was substantial. I had 4 10/10 videos in a row, which is unprecedented. I mean, my content could just be terrible all the sudden, and I've lost all but my core audie
