I have to let @swiftonsecurity.com and others know the joy that @hellsop.ninehells.com felt after earning a follow from Tay. This is one of the last things in my chat with him from the day he unexpectedly died. This was before the bike ride to the gym; he had a medical emergency on the ride home.
A private Discord chat from hellsop with a timestamp of 5/12/2025 3:47 PM. "this still makes me happy." with a screenshot of Tay's bsky account: SecuriTay [follows you] @swiftonsecurity.com 91K followers 808 following 6.6K posts computer security person. former helpdesk.

Bumped into #Overwatch Twitch streamer, @emonggtv.bsky.social, at #PAXEast today. Asked to snap a selfie, but I'm bad at it. Here we are, but Emongg is blurry. (D'oh.)

I'm guessing they Zuck'd it based on this part of the 'Community Standard':

Examples of things we don't allow
X Sharing materials leaked as part of foreign government influence operation

Amusingly, none of the deleted content were links to posts with leaked dossiers (Vance's or Rubio's).

I guess Zuck really dislikes @kenklippenstein.bsky.social. All my posts (on FB) to Ken's content got Zuck'd for "Inauthentic behavior."
transparency.meta.com/.../inauthen...

lol at "our technology." Ah well, FB is basically irrelevant anyway.

Check Ken's stuff out directly on Bsky and Substack.

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #554,413!

I think I was an earlier adopter of Twitter than Bsky, but only because I wasn't able to get an invite sooner.
