Bluesky Upgrades Image Quality and Changes How Photos Display

Bluesky released version 1.121 on April 23, doubling maximum image resolution to 4000x4000 pixels and file size to 2MB. Photos now display in a swipeable carousel instead of a grid, preserving their original shape without cropping. The moves address gaps versus competitors and underscore the platform's bet on media handling as crucial to user retention during social-network migration.
