Bluesky launched a new account-level privacy setting letting users opt out of appearing in the app's algorithmic Discover feed for people who don't already follow them.

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.
