I really enjoyed this conversation with @rabble.nz. It's an expansive discussion: we take in VC, journalism, AI, the open social web, and even Elgg, my very first startup and open source community platform. I hope you like it too.

yep it is, but that’s the thing, idk why the keyboard isn’t just part of the OS

But eventually all app devs will need to use the iOS 26 SDK, didn’t know that, but @knotbin.com pointed it out in another reply.

iPhone 16 home screen on iOS 26 with a red floral background. Top widgets display 3.72k Bluesky followers for jack and ChatGPT shortcuts. Below is a grid of apps with notification badges. In the bottom dock, the Skyscraper app, a new Bluesky client, is circled in red.

using @getskyscraper.com as my main bluesky iOS client now!

I used it before, but not for a few weeks now and there’s already way more nicer features, like more customisation to the colours, sizing, and setting square PFPs!!

no lol, it’s just inconsistent switching between apps that are compiled with the iOS 18 SDK vs the 26 one. changes and it’s annoying, Apple should enforce the new one at the OS level imo but nope..

I bet Twitter don’t know about this so I’m excited lmao. They still use the iOS 18 SDK last time I checked (based on the in-app keyboard on iOS)

iOS 26 style keyboard within the official bluesky iOS app

iOS 26 style keyboard within the official bluesky iOS app

Got the iOS 26 keyboard (finally!)

and stuff like share sheet and other components have the iOS 26 versions. so don’t look like Liquid Glass but have some similar animations when tapping around - I’m starting to see more as I just use the app
