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.

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!

Pinksky is like an imperfect fusion between Twitter and Instagram. Using BSky's AT Protocol, you can post art and images like Insta without having to make a new account. Just use your BSky. One big issue, though, is that sometimes you click a post, and the screen sends you several posts below it. That's a pretty big issue that makes it really uncomfortable to utilize. Even still, PinkSky has SO much potential.
