List of Bluesky services and applications
This is a list of notable Bluesky services and applications. Bluesky is decentralized[1] (built on the open source AT Protocol[2][3]) and open-sources the API it uses for its own mobile and web apps.[4] This, combined with the fact that the API is significantly documented,[5] has led to a vast amount of third-party services and applications being developed for Bluesky in a very short time; many of these are highly notable.[6]
Applications being developed include clients, where you can view feeds and interact with posts (called skeets[7]), custom feeds, bots, starter packs, and verifiers. You can find a comprehensive list of Bluesky services and applications at the Bluesky Directory.
