I use the Over5K modlist as a blocklist on my main account and I find it leads to a broken thread I care about like maybe once a month.
It does lead to confusion on the part of people who get blocked sometimes

Charlie Jane was the reason the Unverified list was updated to account for Bluesky verification, and should be off the list now

Sorry, I use the Over5K list as a blocklist on my main account, which is why I leave this account's DMs open.

The coding involved was much easier than I expected, and this should be done. Clearsky is being about Charlie Jane's account, so having a bit trouble verifying removal.
Please DM if removal did not occur.

I will added blue check verification to the screening process for those modlists as well, but it will require some coding (probably not a ton) and so I can't commit to it being done in a particular period. I'll try to find time for it before the end of the week.

Hi! I responded to your DM, but for others who might be interested: the "verification" part of the Unverified modlists hosted by this account check for the older domain verification system (explainer at bsky.social/about/blog/4... ).
How to verify your Bluesky account - Bluesky
Here's how to verify your Bluesky account by setting your website as your username.

Worth a note that, unfortunately, blocking doesn’t remove a user from your followers. Just the design of Bluesky’s data model.

I think it was a delay, they’re on them now. Thanks for the heads up

Verified account followers with domain handles is pretty easy, can you think of a way to algorithmically determine brand accounts? I’m not opposed to the idea, it just needs to be something I can code

They have a custom domain, they should not be on UnverifiedOver10K if that works for you

Hey that’s super weird. This account never sends any emails, and does not send notifications when folks are added or removed from a list.

Yes, I use the Over5K modlist as a blocklist on my main account. I try not to block anyone on this account that hosts the lists, so that I can get feedback on false positives or similar.

It's totally fine to follow anyone you want to. The modlists hosted by this account are for people who prefer to not interact with accounts that follow a large number of accounts.
These lists are unofficial and anyone choosing to use them does so voluntarily and with intent.

I see where I failed my comprehension check back there, apologies. ClearSky says you're not longer on any lists hosted by this account, but if you see otherwise please let me know.

Over time, others have found use in lists with higher thresholds. Some folks use the modlists to block, others mute. Many, many more people don't use these lists at all in any way.

You're free to follow whoever you want, truly, which is why the lists hosted on this account are in no way official, and by no means are universally used.
I created the Over5K list initially because *I* did not want to interact with high following accounts.

As skewer said, it should be about two hours but to be real the VM the bot runs on now regularly starts stuffing up with far too many profiles to query in its queue. If you (or anyone else) does not see removal happen in a timely manner please DM and I’ll restart the bot and it should clear sooner

There's also a list that goes down to 5K bsky.app/profile/auto...
I've heard requests for 2K lists in the past, and of course the source code is available if anyone wants to run a bot to do so, but the list size would be huge and I don't think the demand would justify a list with like 200k accounts

Over10K is a strict superset of UnverifiedOver10K, so you could mute Over10K with the same results, for what it's worth.

The source code’s available, anyone could create a list with custom criteria 🥰

If you weren't aware, this account does host two modlists with lower thresholds (5k and 7k).

I don't know if there's another thread where meansven is debating Rah, but if by chance you were referring to me or my replies, I am absolutely not Rahaeli. She puts way way more work into her follow farming lists.
