I might actually use BlueSky when Phoenix by @tapbots launches.
The official app and site are just a pain in the ass to use.
I know that #TapBots runs a server for their devs, but it would be nice to see the instance #tapbotsdotsocial open to the public.
But I know it's a very tough thing to run when it's only the two devs @mark @paul and @todd
TechCrunch: Tapbots teases a new Bluesky app, Phoenix, saying it can’t ‘survive on Mastodon alone’. “There’s a new Bluesky app in the works from a popular developer of iOS applications. Tapbots, the company behind the popular Mastodon client Ivory, born out of its earlier efforts with Tweetbot (RIP), is readying a new app called Phoenix, designed for Bluesky’s growing social network […]
I've read so much about the death of Fediverse and Mastodon because it isn't "commercially viable".
Creators of Ice Cubes and Ivory are switching to Bluesky for the financial reasons.
What are your thoughts on this topic? If it was for me, an Android user who never got access to these (great) apps, the Fediverse wasn't even alive
Tapbots entwickeln App für Bluesky
Tapbots entwickeln neben Ivory eine eigene App für Bluesky. Sie begründen das mit dem unglaublichen Wachstum der Plattform. Auf Mastodon allein können sie nicht überleben.
"Ivory" for Bluesky?!
Don't mind if I do!

Tapbots, the developer behind the now-defunct #Tweetbot (because #Twitter prohibited third-party apps from its #API), is to release a client for #Bluesky. The client, called #Phoenix, should become available for #Android and #iOS this summer. #Tapbots is simultaneously working on #Ivory, a #Mastodon client.

Tapbots Unveils Phoenix, a New Bluesky App
The creators of Ivory (Mastodon client) are launching Phoenix for Bluesky’s 32M users, set for summer 2025.
Tapbots says it "can’t survive on Mastodon alone," slowing Ivory’s updates as Phoenix development ramps up.
Users will cross-post between Bluesky & Mastodon, but apps stay separate.

Ivory von Tapbots, für mich leider eine Enttäuschung.
Wenn ich in nächster Zeit noch merkwürdigere Sachen schreibe als sonst oder sich meine Posts wie von Zauberhand vor euren Augen in Luft auflösen, dann liegt das nicht an mir, sondern an meiner neuen App, die ich jetzt benutze.
