I've been interested in playing with the Bluesky/AT Protocol API, and I found out they allow you to subscribe to the Bluesky firehose via web sockets. I spent the last couple of days figuring the API out and put together this dashboard to allow people to see what's going on inside Bluesky. By default, the events processing is set to 25% of all events. I found that when Bluesky is busy, the number of calls I have to make to get the details about the events causes you to get disconnected from the API for a short while. But it's fun to watch for a little bit! There are still plenty of things I want to add to it. I love having this level of access to the data. I wish Twitter was still the same. (Interestingly, blocks on Bluesky are public. I'm still debating whether to include those in a column.)
