as thrilling as it’s been for people to accidentally expose sitting representatives to 🍑, we’ve cleaned up the “what’s hot” feed.

fyi, you can adjust your content preferences in your settings!
👋 We're changing up the What's Hot feed!

We've decided to not show some types of content in the feed (e.g. sexually explicit images). This content is allowed on the app, but since What's Hot has become the landing point for all of our new users, we're updating this simple placeholder algorithm.

there's something really special about being on the ground floor of something new.

this is more than an app. it's ushering in a new way to identify yourself and own your content across the web.

we're fortunate to be in this early number.

We've started to use invite chains as an input for reputation. Invites are private to servers, and can be tooling for server admins to protect their community.

After today, if a banned/actioned account invited you or you invited them, your posts may temporarily not show up in the What’s Hot feed.

Imo, yes. One caveat is that many gov and public service accounts (at least at the fed level) require a platform assessment prior to joining, which likely require more safety features than are currently available (ex: 2FA)

It’s a bit early for now, but depending on how things grow it could happen!
Should we try to get these types of alerts that have real utility over here? @aoc.bsky.social

we worked the week between christmas and new year to get mutes and basic moderation functions in to prioritize safety before we even got to 1k users. what you’re seeing now is the effects of unexpected hype/growth overtaking us. if you cannot deal without blocks, come back later. this is a beta.

I saw lots of questions about if @bsky.app is part of the Fediverse web3, or uses blockchain

The answer is no, but here’s a video explaining why
