Bluesky Doubles Image Resolution and Switches to Carousel Display

Bluesky released version 1.121 on April 23, doubling maximum image resolution to 4000x4000 pixels and file size to 2MB. The update replaces grid-based display with a swipeable carousel that preserves aspect ratios without cropping. The changes address feature gaps against established competitors and signal the platform's focus on media handling as central to user retention during the ongoing social-network migration wave.
