Bluesky does not publicly surface an exact total post count for any given search term, so a precise number of posts mentioning "thermostats" is not available. However, current search results return at least eight recent, visible posts on the topic, with the conversation dominated by a trending political debate over energy conservation advice.
The most prominent thread of discussion centers on advice — associated with New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani — that residents set their thermostats to 78°F during a summer heat wave. Several users pushed back on critics who labeled the suggestion "socialism," pointing out that Republican governors, including Nikki Haley in South Carolina, issued similar thermostat guidance during cold snaps.
