Curious about how to collect and analyze data from the new decentralized social media platform, BlueSky? In this session, we’ll walk through how to scrape posts from BlueSky and perform exploratory data analysis using **R and the BlueSky API**. You’ll learn practical techniques for accessing and cleaning BlueSky posts, identifying trends, and visualizing insights with packages like **tidyverse**, **rvest**, and **ggplot2**.

Whether you’re a data scientist, social media researcher, or just exploring new data sources, this hands-on session will give you the tools to start your own BlueSky data projects.

No prior experience with BlueSky’s API is required — just a basic familiarity with R and an interest in data-driven storytelling.
