Bluesky users are mastering the fine art of blaming everything on "vibe coding" - Ars Technica

Bluesky plans to introduce payments in the coming months, a first step in its strategy to make money without relying on advertising. CEO Toni Schneider and COO Rose Wang outlined the plans Thursday at TechCrunch Disrupt, explaining how the company hopes to build on the commerce and fundraising activity already happening on its decentralized social network. “People are actually selling things, fundraising very successfully, supporting each other on the network,” Schneider said. “We want to make that easier, and the way we’re going to do this is if you see something on the network that you like and support, you can support that monetarily, and we want to do it in a way that works for Bluesky and for all the other apps out there as well, so that it works across the entire network.”

Open social network Bluesky is once again expanding beyond its flagship app. At TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 on Thursday, the company announced the launch of a new tool that allows creators to make websites, quizzes, games, polls, and other interactive experiences. The tool is an expansion of Attie, Bluesky’s more experimental platform, which initially offered AI-powered technology for building custom social feeds. With its new creation capabilities, the idea is to allow everyday users to create the kind of experiences that previously only software developers could build.
