Initially, I hadn't even considered that Bluesky posts wouldn’t embed correctly on Webtrotion. I'd spent lots of time working on tweet embeds to make them look more aligned with Notion's style. Interestingly, Bluesky embeds don't even work in Notion right now—they just show up as cut-off web pages.
Then I saw this post (which I'll embed below) that lets you use Bluesky comments as post comments and shows threads in those comments. That sounded awesome! While implementing that feature will take some time, I tried to mention the post and discovered that embeds actually work. So now Bluesky post embeds work on Webtrotion—yay!
They still don't have dark mode support, and I need to adjust the line spacing and font sizing, but I wanted to share this now since, you know, just in case the platform takes off.
Anyhow, the post in question:

By popular request, here's how to add Bluesky replies as your blog's comment section! This requires some technical know-how for now, but I'm hoping that we see some no-code solutions for this pop up soon, like Ghost or Wordpress plugins. emilyliu.me/blog/comments

And, how it looks like on Notion
How it previously looked like on Webtrotion
And now, with the update
