Aeronaut For Bluesky Release Notes

Improvements

• When switching between accounts within a window, Aeronaut now remembers your last used feed for each account
• New windows now open with your last used account
• The Activity tab is now smarter about how it groups related notifications so you’ll see fewer individual entries for the same actions
• Images that can’t be reduced to fit Bluesky’s 1MB upload limit by compression alone are now downscaled, so you’ll see fewer failed uploads
• You can now drop images anywhere on the composer window, not just on top of text
• When editing your profile, adding descriptive text to images, or reporting content you’ll now be informed when approaching the character limit

Bug fix

• Finally, this release fixes a bug where removing and re-adding an account after moving it to a different account host would leave the account in a broken state.

Aeronaut release notes

Aeronaut has been in the App Store for a month now—so fittingly this is the biggest release since launch!

• You can now share text and links from other apps and they’ll appear right in the post composer using Aeronaut’s new share extension—support for images to follow
• You’ll now see notices confirming that actions such as liking a post or muting a user have finished, and if your internet connection or Bluesky’s servers are running a bit slowly, a notice will let you know that something is actually happening
• A new Settings option lets you change the direction in which the spacebar scrolls—for folks who prefer scrolling towards the top of their feed
• No fewer than 25 new items with keyboard shortcuts have been added to the main menu, including the ability to cycle tabs, feeds, and accounts, change the text size, like posts, repost, follow users, and much more!
• In feeds of any type you can now use the period (.) key to scroll to the top and refresh the feed
• You can now use the left arrow key to go back, and the right arrow key to perform the default action on a selected item; these join the existing ⌘[ and return/enter key shortcuts
• Tab switching keyboard shortcuts (⌘1 through ⌘8) are now smarter: when you’re already on the tab they’ll take you back to the first page if you’re not already there, or scroll you to the top if you are
• Finally, selected items are now deselected when you ask to be scrolled to the top, so when you next press an arrow key you won’t get taken all the way back down

Note that the refresh keyboard shortcut has changed from ⌘R (now used for reply) to ⌥⌘R.
