About Bluesky cross-posting integrations

With BlueSky cross-posting, you can automatically share the first message in a new topic to your linked Bluesky account—if it includes one of your selected hashtags.

Note: Replies and follow-ups will not be posted to the Bluesky account, and messages without a selected hashtag will stay within your group.
