Ratings and reviews

Really good Instagram like UI. Good performance too, although it does have some bugs, like sometimes when I'm viewing someone's profile, clicking on one of their posts brings up a completely different one than the one I clicked on. It also has some missing features/settings compared to bluesky, like viewing an accounts follows or followers. It's still a very usable app though and is my preferred way to browse bluesky content.

My only complaint is I wish the PBC apps were a little more separate from each other. I like the idea of a moveable audience, but "moveable" is very the key word. If I was given the option to follow someone from another PBC app, that's one thing, but these, time of typing, are basically just the same app accessed in different ways. Please provide us with options. That said, it's early. It has a lot of room to grow.

Happy to finally have an Instagram alternative! It's early stages, so I understand the bugs. But hoping it'll slowly get there. Things I've noticed that would be nice fixes - Videos stutter a lot. They constantly pause and unpause for no reason, even if you try to get them to load fully first. The search/discover function only shows people I follow and not additional contact, which the Bluesky app does. Can't wait to see where the app goes! Thanks for building it!
