Tapbots, known for its Tweetbot and Ivory apps, is preparing to launch Phoenix, a new app for Bluesky, this summer. The announcement was made by the team at Tapbots, who emphasize that this development does not signify a shift away from Mastodon. Instead, they aim to manage both platforms to remain viable as a company. Despite growing interest in Bluesky, they assert that Mastodon remains their primary focus, advocating for the ActivityPub protocol and its future in the social media landscape.
Tapbots is developing Phoenix for Bluesky; it's separate from Mastodon, which remains their home, supporting both platforms for business sustainability.
Mastodon is our home on the social web and we will continue to invest our time there.” – Tapbots on their commitment.
We believe the experience will be much better overall if we keep them separate.
We must support both. Unfortunately, we can't survive on Mastodon alone.
