Happy May on Glitch! It’s a pleasant time of the year - the weather is getting nicer and summer is on the horizon. Recently we kicked off a new testing program to get some feedback as we work towards bringing custom domains back to Glitch using Fastly’s free TLS offering - join the testing group and help us improve the experience!
By the way, have you heard of Bluesky? Another addition to the decentralized social media space, it’s built on the AT Protocol and growing fast as invites have been flowing over the past couple of weeks. I built a starter bot that counts sheep, which you can view and remix on Glitch if you’re curious about what building bots for Bluesky is like. We’ve also seen cool apps from the community like @gsajith’s ~blue-skies-ahead project which shows Bluesky posts in real time. We’re excited about decentralized social platforms, and especially excited to see our community building on and for it!
See you on glitch.com (and also @glitch.bsky.social)!

P.S. Shouts out to creator Dominic Farolino, who reached out to share something really cool he built on Glitch: “I always forget which GitHub repositories of mine have GitHub pages enabled, and therefore might be hosting something cool for the world to see. So I created gh-pages.glitch.me to show me…From spending a little time on it I actually found some pretty cool projects that I didn't know about!”
