Ok, Trump. Thanks for the story.
But the best people - all the best people - and these really are good people, you know? They're good, the best, just wonderful people, and they say - I didn't ask, they told me!
"People have been saying"
I love that absolutely meaningless statement.
I tried to look this up but I couldn't find much. The "worst" I found was this:
Where are you reading that people are saying that it's worse than twitter? Is it right wing people that are saying that because they put emphasis on inclusivity and respect?
If that makes bluesky bad, lemmy should get an award for how terrible it is
That’s exactly what it is. The trolls and bot runners and MAGA chuds are pissed that we can completely prevent them from interacting with us there. And with curated blocklists it doesn’t even require work for the average user.
They can come to bsky but they’ll just be screaming at each other while the rest of us talk about cool stuff.
It’s one of the best features of bsky!
Lists, feeds, starter packs, and moderation tools that work, have all led to a very vibrant and engaging social media experience!
The user base isn’t afraid of quickly dealing with antisocial behavior.
You can tell which way your media outlets position themselves by how they report on this aspect of bsky. Egalitarians will cast it in a positive light, while Elitists will cast it in a negative light.
IMO it is THE killer feature, and it’s why Bluesky is going to win this round of the internet wars.
Thats not really what happens, unless you're so toxic that old-twitter would actually ban you.
Bsky has a "nuclear block", that essentially removes you and the target from even existing on the version of the site each other see. If you're ok with just talking to folk who are on your side of a "no, shutup" line, like "trans women are women" or "trans is a mental disorder" you'll be fine.
The issue is that a bunch of folk who abscribe to the second apparently just want to troll the first, so they get blocked by their targets, have no fun, and then complain to reporters still on twitter.
"They" don't have that. Most labellers are user made and people can subscribe to them or not.
The implementation details matter less than how it affects the culture.
if there is, I haven't seen any. ive been using it quite a bit. its probably like most social media where if you don't engage with that kind of content, it doesn't show it to you.
