Blocklists are Bluesky’s absolute worst feature, by far, with the blocking mechanism in general coming in second.
"What if we made a platform where crowdsourced censorship was a first class citizen?" And so, bluesky was born. Suppressing wrongthink since day 1.
The blocking mechanism on bluesky is insane. You can and will get cut off from huge swaths of the network for not blending in with the far left.
Not to mention that when blocked, you lose all access to all posts you’ve made interacting with the blocker, to the point that you can no longer even see or delete them.
Basically. And if you accidentally follow the wrong list you can only appeal through users who don’t have you blocked and they review your timeline for any keywords or evidence that you’re not a pure of heart democratic socialist or whatever they deem the only acceptable school of thought.
This is hilarious. 30k blocked her. What a shitshow. We’re 24. They’re 24 too 🤣🤣🤣
It depends. People can save their blocklist publicly or privately. Some clients give both options, or only one of the two.
Yes. Everything is open and public on ATProto (the Bluesky protocol). Clearsky.app is a good tool to look that stuff up.
The steps leading up to acceptance (that Bluesky is a cunts only platform)? 1. Bargaining (Hey, I'm a nice guy, please, by all means audit my niceness, you will find that I am nice and not mean) 2. Doubt ( they hate me, maybe it's something I've done) 3. Anger (no, I've done nothing, they are just being cunts) 4. Acceptance
