One of the most promising related projects under development is Reelo, a “TikTok for Bluesky.” Reelo is designed as a “video-first” app for the Bluesky platform. However, it won’t be your traditional third-party client built on the BlueSky API.
There are a number of projects now underway that are focused on developing a video-first app for the open source social network Bluesky. However, one
Bluesky also gave a shout-out to AT Protocol developers — the decentralized protocol that Bluesky relies on — who are using it to build video-only TikTok alternatives like Tik.Blue, Skylight.Social, and Bluescreen.Blue, which are currently in early development.

If TikTok bites the dust (as it is expected to do on Sunday ), billionaire Mark Cuban says he’d be open to financing an alternative video-sharing platform that is built off the protocol developed by microblogging site Bluesky.

While Bluesky added a TikTok mode to take advantage of the current instability, Vine might do one better: a full-on comeback!

(In fact, while I was writing this, Tumblr launched its new Tumblr TV feature.) The question is: how successful are they?
X and BlueSky are looking to capitalize on the TikTok fiasco by rolling out their own form of vertical, swipeable video feeds on both apps.
Instagram recently announced CapCut video editing rival Edits, and now X (formerly Twitter) and Bluesky are both rolling out vertical video feeds. "An immersive new home for videos is rolling out to users in the U.S. today," posted X's official account on Sunday.
