GoKawiilBluesky raises video length limit to 10 minutes, up from 3
Bluesky now allows videos up to 10 minutes long, a major jump from the three-minute cap set just last year, and has raised the max file size to 300MB. The company says uploads will also be 2-3x faster, and because Bluesky runs on the decentralized AT Protocol, other apps like Bluescreen, Reelo, and Skylight will inherit the longer video support too.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The change puts Bluesky's video capabilities on par with TikTok and ahead of Meta's Threads, which caps videos at five minutes, signaling an effort to make the platform more competitive for content creators. It comes as Bluesky's active user base has reportedly fallen 25 percent year-over-year, suggesting the company is looking for ways to boost engagement and retention.

DJI Osmo Mobile 6 Gimbal Stabilizer — Now that Bluesky lets you post 10-minute videos, shaky handheld footage gets a lot harder to watch for that long. The Osmo Mobile 6 smooths out your phone shots and folds up small enough to carry everywhere, so longer-form clips look intentional instead of improvised.
