Bluesky has officially launched its new photo-sharing app, Flashes. The App is already proving popular with nearly 30,000 people downloading it in the first 24 hours. With it being a Bluesky app, Flashes posts will be shareable on Bluesky. Features on the new app include a portfolio mode, built-in filters, and curated feeds for artists.
TikTok is closing its Creator Marketplace and replacing it with its new TikTok One creative platform. The new service will continue to connect brands and creators but will also help creators find inspiration, research trends, use AI tools, and connect with experts.
LinkedIn is testing a new feature allowing users to switch between different feeds. Currently being trialed with select users, the new feature gives users access to a “My Network” tab, featuring content exclusively from their connections. This new feature follows research from LinkedIn that found that users are most likely to engage with content from their peers and colleagues.
