I'm taking a social media break for a few days for MH reasons. I'm okay, it's the rest of the fucking world that's the problem. I'm still reachable via email for work stuff and on Discord if we're connected on there.

Take care of yourselves. 💜

tl;dr: Bluesky began with genuine promise: a new social media platform where users could feel safer, but inconsistent moderation quickly eroded trust.

When systemically marginalized users pushed back, Bluesky’s leadership minimized concerns and began to target them for bans.

Every large-scale platform is run by techno-fascists, that's just reality. This is the only social media I'm on because the community of good people is strong and important but it's also vulnerable to the whims of those in charge, who aren't our friends. Best to keep that in mind.

A screenshot of an email from the Bluesky Moderation Team with the subject line “Bluesky Account Behavior” sent at 22:15. The email states that a Bluesky account controlled by the recipient, with the handle @spacelawshitpost.me, posted a reply with an image where the alt text reads: Charlie Kirk sitting in a white T-shirt that says “Freedom.” A negative consequence follows. The email indicates this post violates Community Guidelines regarding violent or threatening speech, specifically listing threats of violence or physical harm against individuals, groups, institutions, or the general public, and incitement of self-harm or suicide.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ A screenshot of an email continuation from the Bluesky Moderation Team displaying a bulleted list of Community Guidelines violations. The first bullet point describes threats of violence or physical harm as including threats or encouragement of violence against individuals, groups, institutions, or the general public. The second bullet point defines incitement of self-harm or suicide as content that encourages self-harm or suicide. The third bullet point explains wishes of harm as expressions of a desire for harm directed at a specific person or group. Below the bullets, a paragraph states that users may not use Bluesky to break the law or cause harm to others and that all users must be treated with respect. The next paragraph informs the recipient that as a result of these violations, your account has been taken down.

The user explains that the Charlie Kirk post is not a threat but rather a reaction meme expressing disappointment, with no threat made and no incitement of violence.

Our new lich queen comes in two flavours - with bone wand or flaming staff - and is always incensed that their proof-of-concept decentralized dungeon model allowing anyone to spin up their own instance has resulted in the wrong type of adventurers running around the place.

Coming soon!

Worth pointing out that Kickstarter United is NOT currently calling for a public boycott of Kickstarter's platform.

The work strike encompasses 59 "community support specialists, trust and safety analysts, marketing professionals, software engineers, and other tech workers" under the old contract.
rascal.news
Unionized workers with @kickstarterunited.org are poised to strike if the crowdfunding platform's management doesn't approve their new contract.

The union has demanded a four-day workweek, minimum living wage salaries, and protections against generative AI encroachment.
Kickstarter United workers will strike beginning October 2
Demands include enshrining the four-day, 32-hour work week in their contract.
