“we” clearly means “i and others in my group”

as a popular journalist she has two key characteristics here that are important:

1. she knows how words work
2. she knows the influence she has over others

if she misspoke on it then retract and apologise, but trying to redefine words doesn’t add up

your paper acknowledges this issue, just intrigued if you think the best solution is separate apps/appviews for arbitrary calls like this, when labelling seems purpose built and avoids unnecessary “eye of the beholder” censorship?

just read through this and it’s fascinating, thank you for writing all this up and for your input on the project

i’m intrigued on the point regarding heavy handedness, do you think banning users who don’t “create a welcoming community” or “treat others with respect” is necessary?

your paper raised lots of good points about the challenges of moderating truth/kindness, so i’m intrigued on what your thoughts are on how moderation works on @bsky.app

with many of us moving here, i've been trying my best to understand how this place works

the @bsky.app team built this app, and can therefore ban users from it

those users can still post to the #atproto, but won't be shown here

am i understanding this right in the flowchart below?

one of my favourite little details in bluesky so far is being able to prioritise the following list over the discover feed, feels like twitter of old seeing your shitty little non-clickbaity posts again

a couple years ago @lornarivett.com & I spoke about our dream of building our own place

naïvely we browsed plots, found one w/ sea views, did due dil, pre-app, positive response, bought it, hired architect and submitted app

council rejected so now appealing

still hoping this dream can come true

may have bought a domain and started hacking on a new (old) side project this weekend, old as it’s the first big idea i had 15 years ago, lots has changed but wanting to work on this has remained…
