Blacksky users on a Bluesky PDS may be experiencing some problems, which means the Blacksky app or the Blacksky feeds may be slower or down for those users. Migrating to a Blacksky PDS may also be riskier. Users on the Blacksky PDS (like users with a blacksky.app handle) should be unaffected
We are investigating various alerts coming from our PDS fleet
