What it does

Superfans ranks the people who engage most with an account. It has two modes, chosen under Show at the top of the page:

• Their fans: for any account, who liked, reposted, replied to, and quoted its latest posts the most. You do not need to sign in.
• Who you engage with: signed in, the accounts whose posts you like, repost, reply to, and quote the most. This mode only appears while you are signed in.

Each ranked account shows its avatar, name, and handle, its total (such as 12 interactions), on how many posts it engaged (such as on 31 of 50 posts), and its likes, reposts, replies, and quotes. Choose a row to open the profile on Bluesky in a new tab. Above the list, a line sums it up, such as 1,204 accounts engaged with 50 posts or You engaged with 1,204 accounts.

Before you start

• Their fans needs only the account’s handle, DID, or a bsky.app profile link. Signed in, the box is filled with your own handle.
• Who you engage with needs you to sign in. It uses the read of your posts, reposts, and likes that Content Search, Bulk Delete, and Alt-Text Audit share. If you made that read in one of those tools, it is used at once.
• In Their fans, the address holds the account (?q=), so a ranking is a shareable link.

Step by step

Their fans

1. Open Superfans. Signed in, choose Their fans under Show.
2. Type a handle, DID, or profile link in Handle, DID, or profile link, or pick a suggested account as you type.
3. Choose how many Posts to read: Last 25, Last 50, or Last 100.
4. Choose Find fans. The bar shows Reading posts, then Post 12 of 50 as it reads each post’s engagement. The ranking grows as each post is read.
5. To end early, choose Stop. The ranking keeps what was read. Start again reads from the beginning.
6. Change the sort with the menu beside the summary line.
7. To start over, choose Clear in the box.

Who you engage with

1. Sign in, open Superfans, and choose Who you engage with under Show.
2. If your account has not been read yet, choose Read my posts, reposts, and likes. The ranking fills in as the read goes. Stop ends it early; Continue carries on later.
3. Narrow the dates with Date, if you like.
4. Change the sort with the menu beside the summary line.

Options

Posts (Their fans)

How many of the account’s latest posts to read: Last 25, Last 50 (the default), or Last 100. Its own posts and replies count; its reposts do not. Changing this starts a new read.

Date (Who you engage with)

When you engaged: All time (the default), Older than 30 days, Older than a year, Last 30 days, or Custom with From and To days. Both days are included, in your time zone.

Sort

The menu beside the summary line ranks by:

• Score (the default): each like counts 1, each repost 2, each reply 3, and each quote 3, so people who take the time to reply or quote rank above people who only like.
• Likes, Reposts, Replies, or Quotes: that count alone.

Ties go to the account that engaged with more posts, then to the higher score. Changing the sort re-ranks at once, with no new read.

What counts

• Their fans: likes, reposts, and quotes of each post, and the direct replies to it. The account itself is left out, as are accounts Bluesky hides.
• Who you engage with: a like or repost counts for the author of the post, a reply for the author of the post you replied to, and a quote for the author of the post you quoted. Your own posts, and likes of feeds or lists, are left out.

The list shows the first 100 accounts.

What gets changed

Nothing: it only reads.

• Their fans reads the account’s posts and who engaged with them from Bluesky’s public API (AppView). The ranking stays only in the open tab: moving to another BskyKit page and back keeps it, and a read still running keeps going. It is never stored.
• Who you engage with reads your own records from your Bluesky server (PDS), and the profiles of the ranked accounts from the AppView. The read of your account is kept in this browser until you choose Clear or Read again, or sign out. See Data on Your Device.

Undo

Nothing to undo: it only reads.

Limits

• Their fans reads at most 1,000 likes, 1,000 reposts, and 1,000 quotes per post, the latest first. When a post has more, a line says so, such as Only the latest 1,000 likes, reposts, and quotes were read on 3 posts.
• Each post takes one request per 100 likes, reposts, or quotes, plus one for its replies. A post with no likes, reposts, or quotes skips that request. Reading 100 popular posts can take up to about 3,100 requests, paced to stay within Bluesky’s limits, so it takes a while.
• A post deleted since it was listed counts as nothing.
• Accounts that Bluesky hides (labeled !hide or !takedown) and accounts that ask to be shown only to people signed in to Bluesky are not read.
• Who you engage with covers what the shared read found. A large account takes minutes to read the first time. See Limits & Pacing.

Troubleshooting

“The posts could not be read”

Bluesky kept failing after several tries. Choose Try again to start the read again.

“No likes, reposts, replies, or quotes yet”

Nobody else has engaged with the posts read. Choose more Posts, or try again later.

“No posts to read”

The account has no posts or replies of its own, only reposts, or none at all.

“No likes, reposts, replies, or quotes in these dates”

In Who you engage with, nothing you did falls in the chosen Date. Choose All time or wider dates.

“Who you engage with” is missing

It appears only while you are signed in. Choose Sign in in the header.

“Bluesky asked us to slow down. Trying again in … seconds.”

This is expected on large reads. The tool waits and carries on by itself.
