About
Hi, this is fromthewestmeadow.com — a developer, tinkerer, and Bluesky enthusiast. I build tools and bots for the Bluesky social network, focusing on transparency, fun, and data exploration. My projects help users discover trends, deleted posts, self-likes, and more.
Featured Tools
- Deleted Posts Watcher — See recently deleted Bluesky posts in real time.
- Self-Like Watcher — Find posts liked by their own authors.
- DID Sound Firehose — Hear a note for every user on the firehose.
- Profile Markov Chain — Remix any user's posts with Markov magic.
- Matrix Firehose — See Bluesky posts as falling matrix rain, sideways and readable.
- Emoji Heatmap — Live heatmap of emoji usage on Bluesky posts.
- Links Firehose — StumbleUpon-style: Randomly surf every link posted to Bluesky, instantly, as they appear in the global firehose.
- Speed Reader Firehose — Watch every new Bluesky post appear in a grid, each cell speed-reading through the words of a single post, so you can focus on any cell and read at your own pace.
- Political Compass Meme Generator — Generate a shareable, deterministic political compass meme for any Bluesky user, with custom axis labels and their profile image as the plotted point.
