We're gonna keep things running at bsky.dazzle.fm (not ready yet) so nothing gets disrupted. It's about $500/mo (lots of optimization work to get there given the firehose of posts), but it would be a shame to take down. Our new stuff is going to be super cool, we have a big update coming...

I wanted to take a second to give kudos to the @dazzle.fm folks. I feel like I haven't seen as much discussion about them as I'd like. It's a cool product they're building. It's basically a super-powered app view of Bluesky. Here's a little overview:

The amount of people talking about "business" has ticked way up since the tariffs.
Custom algorithms on dazzle.fm/algorithms are actually working pretty well. Negative instructions "no politics", etc. are a lot better...

Politics makes up about 30% of all post activity on Bluesky, I’m hoping that ratio goes down as the network grows. #atmosphereconf
Todd@attentionshoppers.bsky.social · last yr.Yup, the answer is what Conner mentioned: there's not enough sports specific content on bluesky, so it gets rolled into gaming/esports. We could force them from merging though, which we'll probably do as the category grows. Here's a heatmap of what we've observed in the past 7 days:
