■ AI-SUMMARIZED FROM 2 SOURCES ▸ TIMELINE

Bluesky has increased its maximum video upload length to 10 minutes, while also boosting file size limits and improving upload speeds across the platform.

The social network's expanded video capabilities mark a significant step toward competing with established platforms. Previously restricted to shorter clips, users can now share lengthier content directly on Bluesky without external links. The update includes technical improvements beyond duration. File size allowances have increased to accommodate longer videos, while the platform has optimized upload speeds to handle larger transfers more efficiently. This move aligns with Bluesky's broader strategy to offer competitive features as it continues growing its user base. The platform has steadily rolled out new functionality since opening to the public, positioning itself as an alternative to X and other social networks. No specific date was provided for full rollout across all users, though the feature is now available to the platform's user base.
