Bluesky has submitted an application to ICANN for the new .bsky domain suffix, which could allow users to create shorter, more personal web addresses. The approval process is expected to take 18 to 24 months, and the company has indicated it will not sell or monetize these domains, emphasizing their role in supporting an open web. If successful, users might transform their social handles into streamlined web addresses and expand their online profiles.

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.
