Bluesky Alerts
Alerts for every account you follow — New post. New posts are usually announced within a couple of minutes.
Arclo watches a account and posts an announcement when something new appears. The engine, the message editor, the filters and the behaviour options are the same on every platform — see Social Alerts for those. This page covers what is specific to Bluesky.
Adding a account
- Bluesky handle
- Paste the handle or the profile URL. For example:
jay.bsky.team. - Channel
- Where the alert is posted. A forum channel makes each alert its own thread.
