RSS feed for a Bluesky account
Bluesky does publish an RSS feed for every profile, but it carries the text and a link only: no images, no video, no quoted posts, no link cards. MicroRSS reads the account through Bluesky's public API instead, with no key and no login, and keeps all of that.
Paste the profile link, bsky.app/profile/<handle>, into Add Feed. Links, mentions and hashtags in a post stay clickable; reposts say who reposted whom; a quote post shows the quoted post inline.
What you get
- The account's posts and threads, with reposts, replies and media as options
- Images full size with their alt text, video posters, link preview cards
- Quoted posts inline, reply context when replies are on
- The account's avatar as the feed icon; each entry links to the post on bsky.app
How to add it
- 1 Copy the link
Open the Bluesky page you want to follow in your browser and copy its address.
- 2 Paste it into Add Feed
MicroRSS recognises the link and offers the feed; nothing else to fill in.
- 3 Read
New entries arrive on the feed's schedule. The options below live in the feed's settings, under Source.

Questions
- Does Bluesky have RSS?
- Yes, at bsky.app/profile/<handle>/rss, but it is text and a link only. MicroRSS's source adds the images, video, quotes and link cards.
- Do I need a Bluesky account?
- No. The API MicroRSS reads is public and needs no login.
- Can I follow a custom feed or a list?
- Not yet; accounts only. Feeds and lists are on the roadmap.
