Bluesky New Follower Auto DM

This n8n workflow effortlessly automates sending personalized welcome direct messages to new followers on Bluesky. It triggers every 4 hours (configurable), authenticates via app password, fetches the last 100 notifications, filters for new 'follow' events, checks for existing conversations, and starts a chat with a custom message if none exists—all without saving data or managing databases.

Key benefits include real-time engagement to build relationships, boost follower retention, and foster community loyalty. It's perfect for creators, brands, and beginners seeking a simple, dependency-free solution that saves time on manual greetings while keeping interactions fresh and approachable.

Use cases: Automate welcome messages for growing your Bluesky audience, increase engagement rates, start conversations instantly, and maintain an active presence without constant monitoring. Ideal for social media managers handling high follower influx.

Setup is minimal: Edit the single 'Setup' node with your Bluesky handle (e.g., yourname.bsky.social), generate an app password from bsky.app/settings/app-passwords, customize the message, save, and activate. No other changes required.
