Backing this up: the @altnps.bsky.social account is BlueAnon Hashtag Resistance grift.
Almost 800,000 people on here are following a totally-not-real account claiming it's a group of rogue park workers and who are now posting cryptic nonsense to make it seem like they're sending messages to the deep state. Also they're selling resistance merch. WTF are we doing man?

Everyone concerned about data loss right now should learn about the End of Term Web Archive, which I believe has been working on preserving federal websites for the past 8 months. The dataset you fear has been lost may well be here
Just an incredible project. Thank you to everyone involved

Referring back to the optimism of my bio when I joined, it seems it’s more complicated. Don’t envy the Bsky devs…. though if bloody good and looking for a meaningful tech job they might have hit the jackpot.
The Reply Guys as a Service network are back out in full force today. Report as "frequently posts unwanted content", and contrary to the instructions in this older thread, you can just put "ChatGPT reply argue bot" in the comments -- the important keyword is "bot".
#BadActorBingo note for the morning: the last few days have seen an increase in accounts that automate "Reply Guys as a service" by pulling random posts and having ChatGPT write a comment that superficially agrees but pivots to trying to start a fight halfway through.

Bluesky has been flooded with automated reply bots - they'll offer a sort of confrontational opinion as a reply. They're pretty convincing and we all need to train ourselves to not reflexively reply to all responses until we check
