Bluesky is finally adding more ways to filter notifications
Bluesky is finally adding more ways to filter notifications

Bluesky has updated its notification settings so that users have more control over when and why the social media app sends them a ping. Besides more granular controls over which things will trigger a notification, you can now receive alerts for any activity from a chosen account.
As a fledgling app, Bluesky has lacked the in-depth notification toggles you might find in something like Instagram, which has had over a decade to figure out when people want to be contacted. With this update, the situation on Bluesky has improved significantly. Now you can choose between receiving notifications from everyone, just the people you follow or no one. And those options can be applied to nearly every interaction in the app now, including when someone reposts something you repost or likes something you repost.

You can now also turn on Activity Notifications for any account you choose, if you want to receive notifications about what they're doing in the app. Bluesky imagines it being useful if you follow news organizations who post about breaking news, but if you want to be the first person to like a friend's new post, now you have an easier way to keep tabs on their account.
Bluesky's new notification options join other recent updates to the X and Threads competitor, like the company's new verification program for "authentic and notable accounts" and an experimental live streaming feature that will let you know when select accounts you follow are live on Twitch or YouTube.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/apps/bluesky-is-finally-adding-more-ways-to-filter-notifications-185542105.html?src=rss
