Some of the Blacksky team will be traveling to Barcelona for Mozfest this week. We are showing up to speak truth to power, build our coalition, and show what it looks like to build alongside our community. TL; DR of the talks Rude1 Haunted Badness. ⁂ (npub17fl…e29v) will be doing: Lookout for us with zines + stickers!

To improve transparency and hopefully reduce confusion we have added a "Backfill in progress" badge to account profiles.

The badge shows if there's a big enough difference between someones follow/post counts according to Blacksky vs. the rest of the ATmosphere (Bluesky, Microcosm, etc.)

There may be pages that do not have blobs (profile images) and full followers counts shown due to backfilling. Backfilling is the process of syncing all data in the network from scratch. ~50% of accounts are synced. This process will take time, but you will still be able to use your account as usual
