Sex workers have been sounding the alarm about this for years . The porn industry, largely on its own, has been fighting the laws, and financial regulations that encourage deplatforming.

Everything queer — and beyond — is about to learn what it means to be designated “harmful to minors”. FUCK.
Yesterday I pulled overt references of queerness off my site, my very successful store that sells my books that have queer main characters. Because a few days ago, Meta emailed saying my advertising on their platform will be restricted - my site was categorized as "sexuality and gender identity."

“Yes, we briefly constructed a user-focused social media website so popular and culturally relevant we had Zuckerberg quaking in his boots, but we threw it all away to protect one weasely little bigot with a mid-tier Substack.”

is that what we’re doing here, Bluesky

it was going so well
Personally, I think Jesse Singal should be banned from Bluesky for his own protection.
Personally I think it’s a rather bizarre choice, both ethically and from a business perspective, to not only allow notorious harasser Jesse Singal to stay on the site, but to actively protect him in ways that aren’t afforded to more vulnerable users in the process.

Jesse Singal using everything in his power to silence people using their freedom of speech to say he is a transphobic pedophile shows that the right do not, in fact, believe in free speech.

They merely believe *they* should be free to say whatever they want with no pushback.

Yeah, I think Aaron should step down from his position at this point, tbqh. Even if he doesn't know Singal, he's proven he is not up to the task of heading Trust and Safety. I think in the future we probably should have someone that has actual stakes in this heading it, instead of another tech dude.

Think I've quote-skeeted before but I will again. A week ago I was one of those saying I'd pay a substantial amount to keep this site going (it's worth much more to me than the $96/y example in this)

I wouldn't pay 50p for a site that's not safe for my trans friends.
BlueSky is trying to monetize so let's show them some numbers:

Reskeet this if you refuse to pay for BlueSky+ until trust & safety decides to prioritize marginalized users.

That's $96 / year of lost revenue for each reskeet...

I'm gonna mute this Neil Gaiman apologist and pretend we never heard that the FUCKING HEAD OF BSKY'S SAFETY TEAM @aaron.bsky.team has Gaiman in his Starter Pack.

BlueSky's enshittification speedrun is just getting better and better.

And by better I mean death fucking spiral.

Not everyone is meant to be a fighter. Some of us are better at healing with touch and word than damaging with weapons and fists. Its okay to be the one who tends to the weary, instead of the one on the front line, because they know we will be behind them, ready to help them heal gently.
