Members act from Discord with their own account.
Optionally turn pasted Bluesky links into cards.

Step 1 · about 1 min
Open Bluesky and meet your sky
Find the page and get to know its sub-pages.
- On the dashboard, open Engagement and click Bluesky. Switch on Enabled at the top and press Save changes.
- The page opens on its Overview. The rest lives in the sidebar under Bluesky: Accounts, Import and Settings.
The Your sky banner is made from the accounts you follow: their real avatars, banners and latest posts drift across the banner, next to how many accounts you follow, posts in the last 30 days, and Discord likes and reposts. Use Manage accounts or Follow account from there. On a new server it reads Your sky is clear, for now with Add your first account and Import a list.
Below it, Last 30 days shows posts Delivered, All time, Discord likes and Discord reposts, a daily chart, and your busiest accounts. Recent deliveries lists the newest posts brought into your channels.
Step 2 · about 2 min
Follow an account
Set up your first feed.
- Open Accounts and press Follow account.
- Start typing a name in Bluesky account. Matching accounts appear as you type; pick one. You can also paste a handle (alice.bsky.social), a profile link or a DID and press Find account.
- Choose where to Post new posts in and press Follow.
A short name with no dot, like alice, is treated as alice.bsky.social. Accounts you already follow show a Following tag.
Each row shows posts and Discord likes in the last 30 days and when it last posted, with chips like Paused, Milestones or Channel missing. Use the switch to pause or resume an account, and click a row to edit it.

- Pick who to follow. New accounts are selected up to your limit, and accounts you already follow are skipped.
- Under Shared settings, choose one channel in Post in, any Ping roles, and whether to include reposts, quote posts, replies, only media posts, and follower milestones. Then press Follow (it shows how many accounts). Fine-tune each account later on Accounts.
