I made a Bluesky video downloader

Hacker News

Hey HN, Recently, a friend introduced me to the Bluesky platform, and I found it intriguing—especially its focus on decentralization. I believe it has the potential to become the next Twitter, and it already has over 13 million users. Today, as I was browsing the platform, I came across a video in one of the posts that I found really interesting and wanted to download to my local drive. However, after searching for a while, I couldn’t find a suitable tool for this purpose. So, I thought, why not create a tool to meet this need? All it should require is the link to a post, and it would allow users to download the embedded video directly to their local storage. With Cursor’s help, I managed to complete this tool in just one day. It’s now fully functional and can download videos from Bluesky posts. I'm thrilled to share this tool with everyone, and I hope you find it useful. would love your feedback pls Charles
