I'll be at #ICWSM 2025 next week to present our paper about Bluesky Starter Packs.

For the occasion, I've created a Starter Pack with all the organizers, speakers, and authors of this year I could find on Bluesky!

Are you interested in @bsky.app research? We gather and make available multiple datasets including posts, social graph snapshots, labellers, feed generators and more. More information is available on our website: bsky.leobalduf.com

@bsky.app grew tremendously over the last year. Recently, the platform introduced “starter packs” (SP) to help users bootstrap their social graph. Anybody can create these SPs. They’re lists of accounts (e.g., “people creating anime”) that others can then follow.

More than 5xusers and well beyond 300K starter packs since April 2024. How did Bluesky looked before the stampede out of X?👇 [1/n]

@ipfs.tech is the largest decentralized file storage. In our recent Usenix Security paper, we answer questions about content uploaded by users:
1) What kinds of “problematic” content is uploaded to @ipfs.tech?
2) How is this content moderated?
3) How effective moderation is?
