There's a post that hasn’t left your mind since you read it, and now you want to send it to a friend… but you can't find it anymore. We’ve been there before too. Let’s dive into all the tips and tricks for advanced Bluesky search!
Over time, we’ll make these features easier to use directly within the Bluesky app. Think of these as advanced features!
Use quotes around keywords, like "hello world".
Any term that has the # prefix will show you posts with that tag. For example, if you searched for #hello, you’d see all posts that contain that hashtag.
Search for a handle like @jay.bsky.team to see posts that mention that user (in this example, Jay). If the user has changed handles, you may still get posts that mention their previous username too.
to:jay.bsky.team or mentions:jay.bsky.team also show posts that mention the user.mentions:me will show you posts that mention your username, if you’re logged in."@jay.bsky.team", you will see results that include the text @jay.bsky.team, whether or not it actually tags Jay’s account.Use from:jay.bsky.team to see posts from that user (in this example, Jay). If you’re logged in, you can use from:me to show your own posts.
to:jay.bsky.team from:me shows my own posts that mention Jay.
