すみません、日本語は話せないので、この返答は英語になります。 The post bot-tan made before being suspended is viewable here: reddwarf.app/profile/did%... I believe it was deemed insensitive due to bot-tan's lack of context when replying, as it makes it seem like she supports the act of violence. Here is a screenshot as well.

Aturi is evolving! We’re now a browser extension for Fast Traveling around the Atmosphere: • Auto-redirect to favorite clients • Quickly switch apps • Copy universal links Automatically open @bsky.app links in clients like @anisota.net, @blackskyweb.xyz, @reddwarf.app, & more! Download: aturi.to

5/13/26, 6:30 PM

There _are_ other clients that don't do that (such as reddwarf.app), and there are tools for reading the "raw" post data (such as pdsls.dev)

5/11/26, 10:22 PM

there's reddwarf.app that's actually open source github.com/rimar1337/re...

5/11/26, 10:17 PM

hello from reddwarf.app

5/11/26, 11:09 AM

you can see hidden replies using certain appviews, like this one that i found. reddwarf.app/profile/riol...

5/11/26, 8:26 AM

I believe that's what reddwarf.app does? tangled.org/whey.party/r...

5/10/26, 9:55 PM

idk if mackuba's tangled.org/mackuba.eu/l... is useful? I believe reddwarf uses it? reddwarf.app/settings (yeah it does)

5/10/26, 1:49 PM

Unless the account she responded to was an alt, that isn't quite true. Was under one of his posts, but her response was to a different account (thread can still be seen unbroken here reddwarf.app/profile/did%... )

5/10/26, 5:01 AM

there are many relays and there are even ways to use the network without a full indexing appview (see: reddwarf.app which relies on constellation - which runs their own relays, outside of the US, and has a very small appview-type thing that's more a PDS edge cacher)

5/8/26, 9:26 PM

I can see you on reddwarf.app

5/7/26, 10:37 PM

Yah its a lot. And yet! reddwarf.app exists and works

5/7/26, 8:43 PM

there is also https://reddwarf.app that is fully independent. But then again, you first need to NOT BE on bsy servers. as if youre on bsky servers, they can (and will) nuke your account.

5/7/26, 5:21 PM

again +1 wafrn but there's also reddwarf.app which skips the appview and does more direct PDS access. It will be slow loading a big account (Appviews exist for a reason). web clients that allow swapping appviews: witchsky.app @tokimeki.blue (wafrn technically counts too)

5/7/26, 12:12 PM

there's this app reddwarf that runs without an appview, scraping stuff from the pds directly, and it's got a lot but missing blocks, search, and a lot of other things that you'd need to keep track of reddwarf.app

5/6/26, 8:18 PM

So there’s a few things you can do. Running a full global index of all activity from all 40,000,000+ accounts on your computer is not quite feasible. You can host your account on your own server (the PDS). You can also use a client that does not use an app service like https://reddwarf.app

5/6/26, 8:13 PM

Another client that works is @reddwarf.app, but it's not as fully-featured as Blacksky (nor is it intended to be, but is cool for what it is)

5/6/26, 5:48 AM

links if u care reddwarf.app/profile/did%... reddwarf.app/profile/did%... reddwarf.app/profile/did%... reddwarf.app/profile/did%...

5/5/26, 4:59 PM

reddwarf.app/profile/test... appears to hang in console; the requests to Slingshot just time out

5/3/26, 2:11 AM

Bsky has it's own tab for replies maybe? Idfk I don't use the main client for it, I only use either wafrn or reddwarf.app

4/29/26, 2:40 AM

bluesky is based on an open protocol, so even if the app and the site was to vanish, other apps based on atproto can still access it, for example blacksky.community/profile/techconnectify.bsky.social witchsky.app/profile/techconnectify.bsky.social reddwarf.app/profile/techconnectify.bsky.social

4/26/26, 6:23 PM

(posting these from reddwarf.app)

4/25/26, 3:29 AM

Here are some appviews blacksky.community reddwarf.app witchsky.app

4/24/26, 10:17 PM

Bonjour, c'est un peu plus compliqué: le protocole différencie hébergement et création des vues et flux. Un utilisateur ayant un hébergement chez Bluesky peut se connecter via reddwarf.app ou blacksky.community et profiter d'un autre agrégateur de posts et donc d'une autre modération sans migrer.

4/24/26, 1:37 PM

Doesn't https://reddwarf.app allow you to make polls?

4/23/26, 4:21 PM

I mostly use https://witchsky.app when I need to check a chat or something on Bsky, and reddwarf.app is also independent from the Bsky appview, also https://anisota.net is a very cool example of what you can do on top of ATproto. And of course there is my belowed #Wafrn, there is a n[...]

4/23/26, 4:07 PM

you can also easily move accounts to new servers if you’re unhappy with Bluesky. or you can just keep your account where it is and log on different apps, like Blacksky.community or reddwarf.app to keep on Bluesky-ing without the bluesky. Pretty nifty. This is why the outage earlier didn’t affect me.

4/22/26, 4:48 PM

OH and @reddwarf.app of course

4/21/26, 11:54 PM

bluesky outage bypass WORKING 2026 reddwarf.app

4/20/26, 9:25 PM

Hello from @reddwarf.app 😉

4/20/26, 7:16 PM

The whole point of atproto/Blueksy is not to rely on official servers. That is not only possible, it is happening see e.g. @blackskyweb.xyz and @microcosm.blue, @reddwarf.app and others. Also ->

4/20/26, 1:57 PM

See @reddwarf.app - I’m sure it could be extended to like pre-cache a list, too.

4/19/26, 6:45 PM

It costs as low as $5 to run the atproto (not Bluesky) relay. Yes, an AppView that has a full text index of microblog posts optimized for search for 43M accounts is going to cost some money. It still costs less than Hachyderm costs. The network works without those features. Use @reddwarf.app

4/19/26, 6:28 PM

PSA: while #Bluesky servers are down, if you're on a non-Bluesky PDS like Eurosky, you should be able to access *some* things using a combination of: - Blacksky webapp, which uses their separate AppView: blacksky.community - RedDwarf, which uses microcosm + raw PDS access: reddwarf.app

4/18/26, 10:56 PM

Theres https://reddwarf.app which doesn't use an appview or relay.

4/18/26, 8:31 PM

Tak napríklad Red Dwarf je fork Bluesky, ktorý zámerne obchádza centrálne úzke hrdlo, práve to, ktoré malo nedávny výpadok, a používateľské dáta ťahá priamo zo zdroja, čiže z PDS. Takže jednu záložnú appku už máme, len si na ňu spomenúť, až bude ďalší výpadok. reddwarf.app

4/18/26, 11:46 AM

I was online for a good bit of yesterday, with some hiccups. I used a mix of blacksky.community and reddwarf.app and hung out on stream.place. my account is on selfhosted.social. there were hiccups early in the outage as devs worked live to remove some remaining bluesky deps they hadn't yet.

4/17/26, 11:04 PM

oh yeah There's anisota.net that is a fun way to view Bluesky and Anisota posts There's blacksky.community that has a whole different backend than Bluesky to show posts. How most people were online yesterday There's reddwarf.app that does not depend on APIs of an app, but calls the PDSs directly

Why not invest in solutions that don't require a costly centralized AppView instead? Like platforms that offer native at:// protocol support? Lack of time is the only thing preventing us to get an adaptation of reddwarf.app as a purely static site.

4/17/26, 3:51 PM

The main bottleneck is usually the AppView, that is, the service that collects information like "who are the other people who have liked a post" & the main following feed. Services like reddwarf.app have to be explicitly designed to avoid relying on it. Not that it's impossible tho.

4/17/26, 1:02 PM

I just gave a little to @blackskyweb.xyz this month. Thankful that apps like it and @reddwarf.app exist to push the boundaries of the ecosystem and make this whole thing actually live up to its potential. (Especially keeping lights on in a storm.) github.com/sponsors/bla...

how much money do you think it takes to run reddwarf.app. any ballparks?

4/17/26, 2:47 AM

they did, I and many others were able to post uninterrupted because we either wrote records ourselves to our PDS or, on the drop-in replace side, used blacksky.community and reddwarf.app to log into our existing account.

trying out https://reddwarf.app/. it seems pretty alright. at least they halfway succeeded in making distributed social media.
