So yeah, I’m pretty much on all social media platforms, but I don’t actively use all of them. That brings me to the fact that I’ve just started using Bluesky again (Follow me here!) When it first launched, barely anyone was on it, but it seems like everyone is migrating over there this week.

With that said, here are two interesting tips I learned while revisiting the platform:

1. Reconnect with Your X/Twitter Followers Using Sky Follower Bridge

Sky Follower Bridge makes it easy to follow back people you used to follow on X/Twitter. It’s a simple plugin, and it worked like a charm for me. Here’s how to use it:

1. Install the Chrome plugin here.
2. Log in to Bluesky.
3. Log in to X/Twitter.
4. Navigate to https://twitter.com/followers and stay on that page.
5. Press ALT-B, enter your Bluesky credentials, and hit the Find Bluesky Users button.
6. Wait for the scanning process to finish.
7. Follow back people using the Follow All button or go through them manually.

Simple, right?

2. Auto-Post WordPress Articles to Bluesky

For WordPress users, the Simple Auto-Poster for Bluesky is a game-changer. It automatically posts your WordPress articles to Bluesky as soon as they’re published. Configuration is straightforward—just provide your Bluesky username and password.

Note: Ensure your posts have a “Featured Image” set; otherwise, the plugin won’t work.

That’s it! These two tools have made my Bluesky experience much smoother. If you’ve recently joined or returned to Bluesky, give them a try.
