The platform launched support for video back <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2024\/09\/11\/bluesky-catches-up-to-x-with-native-support-for-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">in September<\/a> with a 60-second time limit.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the new expanded time limit, <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2025\/02\/03\/what-is-bluesky-everything-to-know-about-the-x-competitor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bluesky<\/a> is bringing its user experience more in line with its competitors, X (formerly Twitter) and Meta\u2019s Threads. X allows nonpaying users to upload videos up to two minutes and 20 second in length, while Threads lets users upload videos up to five minutes long.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The change is also welcome news for all of the apps working to become the <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2025\/02\/01\/here-are-the-apps-battling-to-be-become-the-tiktok-for-bluesky\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u201cTikTok for Bluesky,<\/a>\u201d such as Bluescreen and Skylight. The developers behind these apps are working to bring a video experience to Bluesky, either through a video-first Bluesky client or as an entirely new app built on the same AT Protocol that Bluesky uses. The expanded time limit allows them to offer a TikTok alternative that aligns more closely with the popular short-form video app, which lets users share videos up to 10 minutes long.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bluesky also announced that it has added a new \u201cChat requests\u201d screen that lets people sift through messages from unknown users. Once users receive a DM request, they can choose to accept or reject the conversation via this new screen.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, Bluesky now allows users to mute accounts more quickly by clicking the three-dot menu on a post and then selecting the \u201cMute account\u201d option. The social network has also added better tablet-size layouts on the web and an improved moderation reporting flow.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2025\/03\/10\/bluesky-now-lets-users-upload-videos-that-are-up-to-3-minutes-long\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bluesky now allows videos that are up to three minutes long, the decentralized social network announced on Monday.
