The wild part is the reason they gave for delisting doesn’t even apply to the function of the app

A screenshot of a paragraph from 404 Media’s article titled “Apple Banned an App That Simply Archived Videos of ICE Abuses”:

Mark provided 404 Media with screenshots of the emails he received from Apple. In the emails, Apple says Eyes Up violates the company’s guidelines around objectionable content. That can include “Defamatory, discriminatory, or mean-spirited content, including references or commentary about religion, race, sexual orientation, gender, national/ethnic origin, or other targeted groups, particularly if the app is likely to humiliate, intimidate, or harm a targeted individual or group. Professional political satirists and humorists are generally exempt from this requirement.”

Reminder that, as hard as it can be, if you find some time sit still and listen to your inner voice even in the most trying of times, you might find reserves of strength you never dreamed of and maybe even some growth

I actually hate that this is commonplace now. Like I’m constantly thinking I’m losing it.

“Why isn’t this song liked? There’s no way I haven’t liked it”

Nope, it’s an IDENTICAL version of the song but rereleased as a single bundled with another song.

what makes #blacksky so unique and non-shitty is that it is 100% FUNDED BY COMMUNITY DONATIONS!

a $7/month is super helpful, but if you can afford to give more: THAT'S GREAT 👍

Rudy wants revolution. @rude1.blacksky.team · 1d

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

The building is in a 27 million dollar foreclosure filed by Wells Fargo. The next day, Wells Fargo filed an emergency motion for receivership. The fascist regime kindly emptied the building for donor Wells Fargo.

If you’re able, please support Rudy and his team as they continue to build a separate community for us on #blacksky! They deserve all the support for how they’ve handled things from day 1 for our community.

Y'all who keep lecturing protesters to "not give them an excuse" need to pause for a minute. Imagine yourself telling a DV victim, "Be sure not to mouth off or make any mistakes so he won't hit you. Don't give him an excuse! It's what he wants!" That's what you fools sound like.
