Toni is a wonderfully thoughtful and insightful exec, who has shown that you can build a real business around open software. Finding someone who can execute and who understands the vision of an open protocol at the same time is rare—Toni gets it. I'm excited to see what Toni and Jay build together.

So excited to welcome Toni to the Bluesky team! Toni has been an advisor to me and Jay for years, and we're thrilled he has answered our call to lead us in the interim.

It's been one of the greatest honors of my life to serve as Jay's COO. She is a rare human who sees a more hopeful future and leads with integrity, grace, and wisdom. I can't wait to see how she continues to change the world as Bluesky's CIO.

Hi! I'm the new Head of Communications @bsky.app.

I've been watching the open social web evolve over the past couple of years. Bluesky represents what I believe the future of the internet should look like: built on principles that put people first.

It’s coming!

Congrats to the team @tangled.org!

We've been hard at work on a new website with new guides, better docs, more translations, even our very own blog. We think it looks pretty sharp, too. It's now easier than ever to just build things with AT Protocol.

In the other, open networks let anyone with a good idea build a better version of social media.” @jay.bsky.team
