## What is Bluestodon?

Bluestodon is a posting utility for Bluesky and Mastodon.

It is not a timeline reader or social client - it has no feed, browsing, following, or notifications.

Instead, Bluestodon helps you compose longer posts, split them into threads automatically, preview how they will look on each platform, and post to both services at once.

# Write once, post everywhere

Type once in a single composer and post to Bluesky, Mastodon, or both at the same time.

Bluestodon automatically handles the different platform limits and thread structure for you.

# Automatic thread splitting

Long posts are split into clean threads independently for each platform.

Bluesky and Mastodon use different character limits, so Bluestodon adapts automatically and shows the resulting thread live before posting.

Force manual splits anywhere with `---`.

# Live dual preview

Preview the final thread side by side:

• Bluesky preview
• Mastodon preview
• Character usage gauges
• Post counts
• Media preview cards

See the exact output before sending.

# Platform-specific tools

Adjust posts per platform:

• Text replacements and substitutions
• Pinned replacements per account
• Per-account defaults
• Reply threading
• Quote posts
• Mastodon content warnings
• Mastodon visibility options
• Link preview cards for Bluesky

# Media support

Attach:

• Images with alt text
• Animated GIFs
• Videos
• Link preview cards

Import by picker, drag & drop, or paste directly into the editor.

# Utilities

• Drafts
• Export thread as text
• Activity statistics
• Credential validation
• iCloud account sync
• Multiple accounts

Bluestodon is built for people who regularly publish longer posts and threads across Bluesky and Mastodon.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.3 — 2026-08-02

Attach different media to each platform:
You can now attach different images or video to Bluesky and Mastodon in the same compose session. Tap the circle icon in the Images section to enable per-platform mode, where each platform gets its own picker. Post a video to Bluesky and images to Mastodon at the same time.

Assign images to specific posts in a thread:
Type `{img:1}`, `{img:2,3}`, or `{video}` on its own line to attach specific images or the video to that post in your thread. Tokens are stripped from the final text and don't count toward the character limit.

Bug fixes:
If a Bluesky or Mastodon credential had silently disappeared from the Keychain, the app now shows a clear warning rather than quietly skipping that platform when you post. A separate fix prevents a transient Keychain read failure from permanently deleting a valid credential.

### 1.2 — 2026-07-05

Hashtag presets now sync across your devices alongside your accounts (when iCloud sync is enabled in Settings).

The alt text editor no longer jumps the cursor to the end of the field while you type. And when you reply to someone else's post with reply or quote controls set, those controls now apply to your own post instead of the post you replied to. 

Plus a small app icon refinement.

### 1.1 — 2026-06-11

More images on Bluesky:
Attach up to 10 images per Bluesky post (up from 4). When cross-posting with 5 or more images, Mastodon automatically receives them spread across posts — 4 per post in order.

Content labels:
A new "Content Labels" section in the composer lets you mark a Bluesky post as nudity, sexual, explicit, graphic, or self-harm before sharing.

Control who can interact:
Choose who can reply to your Bluesky posts: everyone, nobody, people you mention, people you follow, or your followers. Toggle quote posts on or off. Both settings live in a new "Bluesky Interaction" section in the composer.

Hashtag presets:
Save named groups of hashtags in Settings and insert them into the composer with one tap.

And video limits checked against Bluesky's live API.

### 1.0 — 2026-06-05

No release notes.
