Bluesky Embedding Support?

Hello, I'm an avid Blot user. I currently find the Twitter/X post embedding feature very useful for my writing on Blot. As I've recently started using Bluesky alongside Twitter, I was wondering if it would be possible to add support for embedding Bluesky posts, similar to how Twitter posts can be embedded. Given the steady growth in Bluesky's user base, I believe adding Bluesky post embedding functionality would be beneficial for many users. I would greatly appreciate it if you could consider this feature request. Thank you for your time.

It may already be there (perhaps depending on the template you use.)
If you go to an individual post on your site and the View Page Source the source. do you see something at the top like this:

meta name="twitter:card" content="summary"

Make sure you check on a post and not the home page

That is on my site, but I don't remember if I added it or if it was already there

I think this is a request for adding support to Bluesky embeds within posts on Blot? If so, then it's already possible using this tool:

Bluesky Embed

Just copy and paste the copy into your post on Blot. I'll add a feature to automatically convert bare links to Bluesky posts into embeds and follow up here when it's ready

I just added a plugin to replace bare URLs to Bluesky posts with the embed, e.g.

https://bsky.app/profile/ibra1.bsky.social/post/3lbq2xwks7s2y

For existing sites, this feature must be enabled on the Services page of your site's dashboard. For new sites, this will be turned on by default.
