Bluesky now supports better images

Bluesky is expanding its social network as a great place to share photos. On Wednesday, the company he announced a new version of its software (version 1.121), which makes images look better in all posts depending on their size and resolution.

Previously, Bluesky only supported uploading images of 1MB or less. Now, the limit has increased to 2MB. In addition, images will be up to 4000px, instead of 2000x, as before.

In addition, the company replaced its old image grid with a flexible carousel that can handle mixed sections without cropping. (Although early reviews of Bluesky users indicate that they can choose between posting as a grid or a carousel.)

These changes could make Bluesky’s app more competitive with other social media platforms, such as X or Meta’s Threads.

The latter became well-known after its launch as a photo display, thanks to its support for different types of groups and its carousel, which provided smart ways to divide large images so that they can be viewed in this way. In fact, even he told a programmer to create a stand-alone program to help users upload their panoramic photos to Threads. (The words of pa they help (larger image, although not published in Threads.)
