Bluesky posts are short, but the threads and replies are where the writing adds up. With Typally you hold a hotkey, speak, and the text lands in Bluesky exactly where your cursor was.
Yes, we build Typally. That is also why the section on Bluesky's built-in option is honest: people who switch after trying both are the ones who stay.None. The composer is a plain text input.
Short posts are fine to type. What accumulates is everything else — replies, threads, quote posts with real commentary — and that is where people give up and post a reaction instead of a thought.

Typally types into the composer and into whatever plain editor you draft in, so a thread can be spoken as continuous prose and split afterwards. Its cleanup strips the false starts that make raw speech unreadable, which is what usually stops people posting dictated text straight to a timeline.
Someone who had abandoned four half-written threads talks the fifth one through in one go, then splits it. It posts complete, which none of the previous four managed.

No. The composer is a standard text field.
Draft it as continuous prose, edit it, then split. Writing directly into the box encourages stopping early.
Yes — they are ordinary text inputs.
