Bluesky just announced that its adding a new video tab to user profiles as part of a software update. This is nothing too crazy. Its just an easy way for users to easily peruse all of the videos someone has posted, whether its original content or stuff pulled from other social networks. It's like the pre-existing "Media" tab, but exclusively for vids.Engadget/Lawrence BonkThis is yet another pivot to video move by Bluesky. It recently introduced a vertical footage feature on mobile called Trending Videos, which is eerily reminiscent of TikToks, YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels.There are also several TikTok rivals being built on top of Blueskys AT Protocol, though most are still in closed testing. Even billionaire Mark Cuban wants to get in on the action. All of these upstarts would, of course, receive a much-needed injection of eyeballs if TikTok were to actually be banned, but who knows whats going on there.Bluesky update 1.97 isnt just about the video tab. It also streamlines the process to block folks who pop up in DMs and offers translation improvements.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/social-media/bluesky-adds-a-video-tab-to-user-profiles-193929994.html?src=rss
