You're browsing Bluesky and come across that must-read post. It could be an inspiring video, an interesting link, or an argument that you don't have time to pay attention to right now, but want to review later. The problem is that there's no way to save it. At least, not yet. Unlike other social networks such as X (Twitter), Instagram, or TikTok, Bluesky doesn't have a “save post” button yet.

This can be frustrating. Sure, Bluesky is new compared to the other social networks mentioned, and it's full of unique content, fresh ideas, and exceptional videos that deserve to be seen again. But there is a solution to fix this! And it's much better than just taking a screenshot or putting the link in your notes.

In this article, you will learn:

• How to save posts and videos from Bluesky, even without this feature on the social network itself.

• How to organize your saved posts by tags and folders.

• Where to find everything later.

• And how a tool solves this successfully, with a lightweight, fast, and cross-platform experience.

Let's get started!

Why can't you save posts on Bluesky yet?

Bluesky is a relatively new social network, founded in 2021. It is still under development, as a public beta version with decentralized ambitions and a focus on privacy. As such, many of the basic features found on older social networks have not yet been implemented there. “Save post” is one of them.

Today, the only standard way to interact with a Bluesky post is:

• Like

• Repost

• Reply

• Copy the link

But what if you want to revisit an interesting post later? Save it to study, view at your leisure, or revisit a video that made an impression on you?

You would have to use an improvised method, such as:

• Save the link in your notes

• Send the post to yourself via DM (oops… Bluesky doesn't have that yet either)

• Take a screenshot and save it to your gallery (not very efficient)

This is where Dewey fits like a glove.

Dewey: the “save post” feature that Bluesky doesn't (yet) have

While Bluesky does not yet offer the ability to save posts, Dewey fills that gap masterfully.

Dewey is an app designed to make it easy to save, organize, and search content from social networks like Bluesky. With Dewey, you can save any post with a single click, add tags, create folders, and access everything in a clean, fast, and centralized way.

How does Dewey work with Bluesky?

The magic happens with a browser extension (for desktop) and a simple and intuitive system for web and mobile. When you install Dewey, you can:

• Save any Bluesky post by clicking “Copy Link” and pasting it into Dewey

• Click the Dewey button directly in the Bluesky interface (if the extension is active)

• Add tags to organize content (e.g., #video, #inspiration, #design)

• Add notes, such as “view later” or “related to project X”

• View all saved posts in a clean, distraction-free timeline

Also, Dewey stores the entire content (not just the link), so even if the post is deleted later, you will still have access to what you saved.

How to Save Videos From Bluesky With Dewey

Text posts are great, but what about the videos posted on Bluesky?

Dewey treats all types of content with consideration: videos, images, links, long threads, and more. When saving a post with video, Dewey saves:

• The original text

• The link

• The thumbnail and embedded video (when possible)

• The date and author

This means that the video you saw and wanted to show a friend later (or use in a presentation, creative reference, or post idea) can be saved with complete context.

And the best of all is that without relying on your phone or computer's memory.

Organizing your saved posts like a master

Saving posts is only half the battle. The other half is finding them later. And here Dewey stands out once again.

With Dewey, you can:

Add custom tags

Saved a post about AI? Use #artificialintelligence. Saw a funny video? #humor. Putting together references for a design project? Use tags like #inspo, #colors, #UX.

This way, you create your own category system that can be easily searched later.

Create collections

In addition to tags, Dewey allows you to create themed collections. Think of them as playlists or smart folders. For example:

• To read later

• Content ideas

• Visual references

• Favorite videos

Each collection can even gather posts from any connected platform: Bluesky, X, LinkedIn, and more.

Use advanced search

Let's say you saved a video about minimalism with the phrase “less is more,” but forgot to add tags. No problem. With Dewey, you can search for words within the post.

This is one of the most praised features. It doesn't matter if the post is 5 months or 5 days old; you'll find it.

How to install and start using Dewey on Bluesky

Ready to finally save posts on Bluesky efficiently?

Here's the step-by-step guide:

1. Create your Dewey account

Go to https://getdewey.co/bluesky and click “Sign up with Bluesky.” You can connect your account securely. Dewey never posts anything on your behalf.

2. Install the browser extension (optional, but recommended)

On your desktop, you can install the Dewey extension in Chrome. This adds a direct button to Bluesky posts, making it easy to save with one click.

Without the extension, you can still copy the post link and paste it into Dewey manually, but with the extension, everything is faster.

​​3. Start saving and organizing

That's it! Now you can explore Bluesky as usual, but with the bonus of being able to save everything that matters.

Seen a video that inspires you? Found a clever thread? Liked a meme you want to use later? Just save it.

Then go back to Dewey and filter, search, and organize. All intuitively.

What makes Dewey different?

You may be wondering: why not save Bluesky links in Notion, Evernote, or Google Keep?

Great question. And the answer lies in the context.

While note-taking apps are great for free-form notes, Dewey is specifically designed to save social media content. This means that it:

• Recognizes and displays content with a preview

• Saves the post even if it is deleted later

• Keeps metadata such as author, date, and number of likes

• Allows filters and specific searches for this type of content

• Integrates with multiple platforms beyond Bluesky

You transform your passive content browsing habit into a living, organized archive.

Real-world use cases

Here are some examples of how Dewey can help you in your daily work with Bluesky:

• Content creators: archive ideas, references, and inspiration for future posts.

• Students and professionals: save tips, tutorials, PDFs, and educational videos.

• Researchers: monitor trends and archive relevant discussions.

• Journalists: record quotes and events directly from the source, with context.

• Regular users: always have the posts that moved you, made you laugh, or made you reflect.
