I don't see a way to make a list or starter pack for #blocklists so I'm just going to put the ones that I've found to be useful and trustworthy into a thread.
On top of the routine disappointment in encountering another fear-mongering piece about healthcare for transgender people in the pages of a (formerly?) reputable publication like the Washington Post, I'm struck by a professor of philosophy writing under the circular, self-sealing justification...
We know. You left your name in the exif data on the PDF dude.

Hmm, I'm hearing reports elsewhere that if one's beliefs about sex and gender may derive from deeply held "religious beliefs that parents wish to instill in their children", it actually means that the government must carve out privileges for acting on those beliefs.

Okay, I've turned off replies on the blocklist thread to keep it clean and pinned it to my profile.

I've been here less than a week, so I'd be interested to hear what other resources people are using.

Configured SMTP for email verification on the PDS using the free-tier of service from resend.com to complete email verification, so I think it's all buttoned up for now. Interested to see the actually monthly cost and resource usage for running the PDS.

Really like how lists make it easy to subscribe to blocklists here. Applied prophylactic blocking from the lists on @skywatch.blue

Spun up AT Protocol PDS droplet at DigitalOcean to see what's going on over here. Not clear what the point of running a PDS is other than creating handles linked to a custom domain...but you can also use your own domain with just a TXT record in your DNS.
