You’re not notified on Bluesky but since the information is public, there are services that let you look up if you’re on a list (clearsky.app is the most popular one - it might be the only one for now? idklol).

That is definitely a take.

The misogynistic idea was quickly dismissed by women across the country, forcing Hyakuta to apologise. In his apology, he clarified that his comments were were framed as a “science-fiction storyline” to help start a discussion on the falling birth rate.

He admitted that his opinions were “extremely harsh” and denied that he advocates for such drastic measures against women. “I meant to say that we cannot transform the social structure unless we do something that goes that far. I want to retract my remarks and apologise,” he was quoted as saying by the South China Morning Post.

olololollol fuck all the way off

It doesn’t appear for everyone to see.

I feel like we’re talking past each other and it’s too exhausting to try and get across what I’m saying. Have a pleasant day.

And yet, everybody stayed until the Muskrat took over. Because until then it wasn’t the platform telling people to be nazis and nazis were a nuisance but a minority - as are people who falsely accuse scientists of being anti-science on BSky. That’s exactly what I’m saying.

Is it “widely used”? An aim bot directly affects everybody else, actively making the game worse. This only affects a small number of people who choose to opt-in and trust the labeller’s opinion. I can’t even find that labeller and I learnt about it from you. And again, it’s not BSky that offers the labeller - that IS an important distinction.

I do think it matters a lot whether it’s a thing the app offers natively to everybody or something certain users have implemented on their own and that other users can choose to use or not. You don’t blame the contents of a mod on the game itself, do you?

“They” don’t have that. Most labellers are user made and people can subscribe to them or not.

Feeds are aggregators that show you posts that fulfill certain criteria, such as mentioning keywords (which can include but is not limited to hashtags). They’re a lot more versatile than just hashtags. I can’t tell you why they chose the # symbol to represent feeds ┐⁠(⁠ ⁠∵⁠ ⁠)⁠┌

On your profile you have a following count, that’s where you’ll find a list of people you follow.

The key concept you want to look into is feeds. They’re as, if not more important than hashtags. There’s a feed called Following which is all posts from people you subscribe to.

What I’m trying to get at is that people need to stay for a critical mass to be reached instead of going “there’s nobody here” and leaving.

And how do you think that larger userbase is going to come into existence?
