Blucerne is a reader app for Bluesky which makes playing with filters and saving the good ones the primary user interface.
Blucerne is built for my own personal needs, and is heavily inspired by Lucerne for Twitter.
If you would like to try it out, you can get started by making a Bluesky app password and using it to log in with your user handle.
Here are some workflows that Blucerne unlocks for me!
