So, if I understand the whole Bluesky thing correctly, there are apps that don’t respect Bluesky’s limitations (like having to log in to view certain posts).

Would those apps skip this as well or is this an actual geo-block?

Other apps can ignore the geoblock. From the Bluesky announcement:

This decision applies only to the Bluesky app, which is one service built on the AT Protocol. Other apps and services may choose to respond differently.

  Any recommendations for a good Android app that would ignore things like this?
  
  I’m currently using the Bluesky app because the ones I tried didn’t want to auto open Bluesky links.

    not sure, sorry. i tend not to run mobile apps, so mosf of the apps I know of are web apps (deer.social, zeppelin.social, deck.blue etc). there may well be some Android apps out there though!

    It’s ignorant how you don’t realize that Spark and Blacksky have built their own stacks on AT Protocol.
