How to Post a Thread on Bluesky (and Schedule It Like a Pro)

Threads are one of the best ways to express yourself on Bluesky—especially when your thoughts won’t fit into a single post.

Whether you're telling a story, sharing a step-by-step guide, or breaking down your latest idea, threads help you go deeper and keep your audience engaged.

I use them all the time when I want to build momentum or share something in detail, and honestly, they’ve worked great.

But before we get into how to post them, let’s talk about why you should even use threads on Bluesky in the first place.

Why Use Threads on Bluesky?

Bluesky might look like a simple text-sharing platform, but it’s capable of so much more—especially when you start using threads.

Here's why they matter:

More space, more freedom: You’re not confined to one short post. Threads let you explain things clearly, one part at a time.

Higher engagement: Multi-part posts are naturally more engaging. People tend to reply, like, and repost individual parts.

Easier storytelling: If you’re building a narrative or walking people through a topic, a thread keeps everything organized.

Valuable for creators and brands: Threads work well for product announcements, tutorials, dev logs, and opinion pieces.

If you’ve got something meaningful to say, threads are the perfect format.

How to Post a Thread on Bluesky!

Creating a thread on Bluesky is pretty straightforward. It’s all about adding new posts to your own posts.

Here’s how you can do it:

Open Bluesky and start a new post.

2. Type out the first part of your thread and post it.

3. Once it’s live, tap the plus sign (+) on the post.

Write the second part.

5. Repeat this process—replying to each post with the next piece—until your thread is complete.

That’s it! Your posts will appear connected in a linear format, and readers can scroll through easily.

🔄 Pro Tip: Make sure each part ends with a little hook like “(2/5)” or “More in the next post 👇” to keep people reading.

But Here’s the Problem: Bluesky Doesn’t Let You Schedule Threads!

This is the part that frustrated me.

Bluesky doesn’t support scheduling posts or threads.

That means if you want your thread to go live at the perfect time, you need to be online and post each part manually.

Not ideal—especially if you’re managing a content calendar or planning across multiple platforms.

I didn’t want to interrupt my workflow every time I needed to post something. I wanted a way to plan, write, and schedule my Bluesky threads in advance. So, I turned to Circleboom Publish.
