Would there also be an investigation into the accounts that like or possibly share this?

@ec.europa.eu is the 16th trusted verifier on #bluesky

It just verified its first 5 users with blue check.

Sinds kort is @ec.europa.eu een trusted verifier dus hopelijk zien we terug een versnelling in het uitdelen van blauwe vinkjes.

Sometimes I also get into a state where no button works anymore or it's frozen but that's on my android phone. Usually when I haven't used the app for a while and it was in the background.

If you want to know more about the scaling/infrastructure limit issue when there are too many replies you can have a look at this thread.

Eric @esb.lol · Aug 16

In this case it's just that this endpoint is unfortunately still pretty dumb, and it's prefixed with "unspecced" to reflect this. This endpoint, like the old one, still loads everything into memory before traversal/rendering. Not ideal.

More info about the 'needs-review' label can be found here in this thread.

surfdude29 @surfdude29.ispost.ing · Aug 29

so... I used @mackuba.eu's excellent Label Scanner, and I think I found what's causing this: a 'needs-review' label from @moderation.bsky.app (first time I've seen this)

if this isn't shadowbanning, I have to say it looks an awful lot like it 🧐

please explain @pfrazee.com @aaron.bsky.team

Label Scanner
Handle or URL: arcues.bsky.social

2 labels found:

"needs-review" from Bluesky Moderation Service
"cruise-accident-drowned-deck-pool" from The Cave of Trophonius

Indeed, when people talks about shadowbanning it's probably linked to one of these 2 cases:
- Account received 'needs-review' label
- scaling/infrastructure limit issue when there are too many replies

They didn't shadowbanned you. There is currently a bug that appears when there are too many replies and it's explained in this post.

If the account received the 'needs-review' label it was probably still visible for the ones who followed the account.

hailey @hailey.at · Aug 29

A similar ability has existed for some time through the !hide label, though there are limitations there. To be clear, when the needs-review label is applied, people who follow a user still see their replies and receive notifications from those users as normal.

A huge success in our fight for freedom!🎉💪

I have been thinking about it and how I see it we should still show the original replies but we should make a distinction between replies from accounts they following and the other ones. Like mentioned here already behind a 'show more replies'.

The following countries are in favor (red): Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Denmark, France, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Lithuania, Malta, Portugal, Spain, and Sweden.

The following countries are against it (green): Austria, Czechia, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Poland, Slovakia, and Slovenia.

The following countries are undecided (blue): Belgium, Greece, Latvia, Romania.

At the bottom is the call to action: "Act now! www.chatcontrol.eu".

I hear and see your concerns. Over the weekend, a couple users hosted on Blacksky's PDS were banned from the Bluesky app and thus the Bluesky API servers. This was a weakness of our system I've been aware of and hoped we had more time to address before any kind of public incident. 1/11

Yea, I get what you mean but I don't think they will remove the 'needs-review' when an investigation happens. Like mentioned in the thread they just need to make it somehow visible on the platform.

Logan Dupont @logandupont.com · 4d

Np, the most inportant thing is you will know what to do if it happens again.
