Moderation decisions draw intense public scrutiny from many places. That’s why Bluesky's architecture is designed to enable communities to control their online spaces, independent of the company or its leadership. We will continue to work on empowering people with more control over their experience.

The absolute CRINGE of Snoop pausing to let the audience say 'six in the morn' and nobody responded because there are only 12 Black video game devs

11yo’s class had their final D.A.R.E lesson today. Apparently the cops promised ice cream to the class with the most kids wearing D.A.R.E shirts - my kid’s class - and then they just… didn’t give out any ice cream. So thanks, D.A.R.E, for teaching my kid the most vital lesson of all: that cops lie.

Shootings in America have been out of control for my entire lifetime. We have been shooting our own children regularly for decades now. Members of congress are beholden to organizations that advocate for unlimited guns.
But one CEO gets shot and NOW it's an emergency?
Go fuck your entire self.

Taking an indefinite break from Bluesky. The lack of transparency from Bluesky's leadership team on their trust & safety policies, their process for evolving those policies, where they draw the line on harmful conduct, it's not worth me investing more time here until the policies OR tools catch up.

Meanwhile the Atlantic published a whole thing about "decivilization" today: “The line between a normal, functioning society and catastrophic decivilization can be crossed with a single act of mayhem.” (they mean, of course, the CEO, not the genocide)
96% of children in Gaza feel that their death is imminent and almost half want to die as a result of trauma. 92% of the children in the survey were “not accepting of reality”, 79% suffer from nightmares and 73% exhibit symptoms of aggression.

this is the truly frustrating part, to me
it was sex workers and trans people (and, yes, TPOT) that built Bluesky's userbase. A userbase that Bluesky has been able to quite literally capitalize on by using growth to attract funding.
For their concerns to be treated as unworthy of comment STINGS

Reminder to all new and old Bluesky capitalized off the popularity of articles like this
And now pretending it never happened.
Good thing articles are forever archived.

@safety.bsky.app @moderation.bsky.app here is jesse singal openly skirting around blocks here, on *this platform* not just on twitter. once again asking his followers to harass another user on his behalf
this makes at least 3 examples. (✨, alejandra, cortland)

I've blocked Singal but honestly he likes to do this so I feel like it's open season on creepy incels. Here Singal is, announcing that he's trying to get around the block on this platform by sending his little goons after Cortland.
Inappropriate behavior, but one I expect from him.

Montana walking that walk again. Liberty for me and not for thee is some straight Idahoan nonsense. <3
The gender affirming care ban in Montana has been BLOCKED by the MT Supreme Court in a unanimous decision.
Montana has a constitutional right to privacy, including in our healthcare decisions. And today our constitution continues to protect individuals from government overreach.
