The new Discover feed will evolve over time, so give us your feedback through the in-app feedback form in your side menu.

Most importantly, you’re not locked in to our choices! If you don’t like it, simply unpin it and install a different feed.

Last week, users reported an account that used a slur as its handle. We’re sorry that this handle slipped through. Our Black community deserved better. As an open social network, we strive to be transparent. Read this for more details. https://bsky.app/profile/safety.bsky.app/post/3k35dxtz2e22h

If you can see this post in your Teams feed, then congrats, you're in the best team
