While still CEO of Twitter, Jack Dorsey simultaneously formed an independent team of five people to create something. The group consisted of web engineers, designers and architects. In short, the perfect alliance to found a project in the world of new technologies.
And this is indeed what Jack Dorsey envisioned. The former CEO of Twitter had the ambition to developa new standardwhoeveropen(open source)and decentralizedfor social networks.So that’s where BlueSky was born..
Concretely, what is BlueSky?
It isa social network, but not only that. The platform also offers a set of tools allowing developers to create their own social network based on the BlueSky standard. Jack Dorsey also planned to make the blue bird one of the customers of this standard.
In other words, if it had been done,Twitterwould have beenmore decentralized and more democratic.It could also have interacted with other social networks created using the same standard. Unfortunately,following the takeoverof the platform by Elon Musk,the link was severed with Blue Sky.
After the arrival of the bossTeslaat the controls of the blue bird, BlueSky broke away fromTwitterto become an independent company. Since then, the company has been growing and has even launched its application on the App Store.
To be able to register, it is also necessary to be invited, or to put yourself on a waiting list. If you already have a Blue Sky account,Don’t hesitate to join us on the social network (@iphon.fr)!
BlueSky launches its first third-party application: GraySky
Multiple projects based on BlueSky are currently in development, but until now none have had the honor of appearing on the App Store.The lucky one is GraySky. The latter allows BlueSky users to connect to the platform and benefit from their account, but from a new interface.
You should know that in terms of appearance and use, BlueSky is similar to Twitter. GraySky follows this path somewhat, but additionally comes with many new features. This is what it looks like:
