It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

this kind of smug bullshit really is the main problem with the site, it's basically impossible to mention another platform without having some weird local life form appear in your mentions going on about how morally superior they are for being there

The problem with Mastodon is that it makes you feel stupid for not knowing how it works.
That was the real hurdle Facebook and everything that came after cleared, you could just join, it didn't take any debugging or jargon. It just, worked. For a while.

Yeah you gotta at least try. Put a tiny amount of effort into your experience.
I you cant be bothered to think for yourself just a tiny bit then I guess just stay on this fascist friendly site with the CEO who hates you.

Here’s the thing about social media moderation: you need to have both a provision and a practice of keeping people off your platform even if they don’t break any of your rules but are simply just a fucking asshole. And of course off-platform behavior is a legitimate reason.

but that would require they do work and make decisions and when you make decisions sometimes people get mad at you!

the only way to solve the trolley problem is to pretend that you didn't see or hear anything

This labeler will be shutting down. We will first be unlabeling everyone who is labeled and then will cease to operate. As the unlabeling operation will take an unknown amount of time, we are not setting a specific timeline other than as soon as possible.

Rose 🌹 @rose.bsky.team · Jun 12

It’s wild when the people who control the only feed most people see accuse us of being the echo chamber. People are scared and in pain—they deserve spaces to talk without top-down interference. That’s what we’re building.

This is AJ Link, known here as Łink. He's awesome. He's been permabanned for basically just making the CEO, Jay Graber, mad. This was a monumentally stupid decision that, AFAICT, may result in the collapse of Bluesky due to a loss of trust, but we'll see. The smart thing to do would be to #FreeŁink

Bring AJ Link back.

Banning Link is racist and petulant. I will never be the smartest person in the room on ATproto, but I know mean-spirited retaliation. This is mean-spirited retaliation

It's not that I won't vote for Gavin Newsom if he's the presidential candidate. It's that if the Democratic Party chooses him, then they are communicating to me that they actively do not want my vote, and believe they don't need it. I will simply honor their wishes

Im going to give it a day or two to think about it but I'm like 98% sure Im leaving.

I might be replaying some greatest hits or whatever over the next day or so, just as a sort of farewell.

I loved finding this place and I loved meeting you all and I'm so sad that this place doesnt want us here.
