My personal account is unverified, I have no problem with it. I personally use the Over5K list, but a user asked for a list that didn’t have verified accounts on it, hence I created the UnverifiedOver5K list.

I certainly do manually block people on my personal account, as well, but I don’t then add them to the lists hosted here.

Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 08/10/2026
Other way around. I put the blocklists I host (and use) on this account to allow people to more easily contact me via DM if they were added to a list incorrectly.

If you follow fewer people you will be automatically removed. But don’t worry about it, just use the site how you prefer to

I’m so happy, Faine’s account was the one human account I was tempted to make an exception for 😭

What are you talking about with it being human ran? I mean I guess technically I am a human who runs the lists but there is absolutely a bot that consumes the Bluesky firehose to search for accounts to add/remove from the lists.

The hosting account doesn’t use the lists for blocks, you can DM it or mention it if needed (like making sure you’re removed from the 7K list). But I created the 5K list for my personal use on my main account, so yes I use it.

I don't (exactly) know why this was requested, but I can add other domains as well if requested. The requests for this: bsky.app/profile/ewan... bsky.app/profile/psin...

By request, a new list is created: bsky.app/profile/auto... This list automatically adds anyone with a wsocial.eu handle.

but I want to loudly say you should not feel the need to do so. I don't have any verified accounts, and I don't personally use the Unverified lists. Probably not many people use those lists, and I don't think it's wise to chase the few who do.

There's two ways. First is domain verification: bsky.social/about/blog/4... is a tutorial bsky made for it. There's also a verification kinda akin to Twitter's: bsky.social/about/blog/0... Either works to be removed from the Unverified list,

Here's how to verify your Bluesky account by setting your website as your username.

The lists are moderation lists, used by others to block or mute accounts they don’t want to interact with. This account has nothing to do with bsky.app nor verifications

No not at all. The Over5K list is everyone who follows more than 5,000 accounts, UnverifiedOver5K is everyone Bluesky hasn’t verified that follows more than 5,000 accounts.

Oh hey, the lists hosted by this account (and the bot that maintains them) is in no way, shape, or form associated with Bluesky itself. These are the equivalent of any human-maintained list, if the human had infinite time and attention to pay to Bluesky.

While I did create a GitHub request to allow follows to override blocks (with Bluesky), if one wants, they could run the bot code and add exceptions for any accounts they’d like.

I definitely feel this pain, myself. If anyone has a github account and cares to add your opinion to github.com/bluesky-soci... , maybe Bluesky PBC will see fit to make it possible to override modlists

Other way around, this account is the bot 😊

Hi this isn’t a starter list, it’s a moderation list. People use it to mute or block accounts they don’t want to interact with. I do not accept removal requests based on desire to not be on the list.

Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 24/05/2026
Go ahead and report this account, it’s been done before many times, but maybe your report will be the one that gets it closed down 🙏

It's a moderation list used by folks who would prefer to not interact with accounts that follow a lot of accounts. There's various thresholds, starting with 5k following. The 7k list is a pretty low threshold, and not a lot of folks use it for mutes/blocks.

Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 20/04/2026
Hey, just wanted to say that there's no automated way for this account to determine whether a Bluesky account is controlled by a human, so that is not at all a threshold for being added to the modlists. Some very definitely human people are on the list (including Faine)

Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 13/04/2026
It just means that you follow over 5,000 accounts - some folks prefer not to interact with people who follow over 5k, or 7k, 10k, etc. So some people will mute or block folks on the 5k, 7k, etc lists.

the UnverifiedOver5K list.

You can either be verified via the Bluesky company (or one of their delegates), to which I don't know anything about how you do that, or you can do a domain verification, see: bsky.social/about/blog/4... As a note, though, you will still be on the Over5K list, which some people use instead of
bsky.social

Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 02/04/2026
The reason that I host these lists on this account is that I, and some other users, prefer to not interact with accounts that follow “a lot” (there’s different thresholds) of accounts.
100
Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 02/04/2026
Bluesky allows what they call “composable moderation” - users are allowed to create and share and use various forms of moderation that they find useful. This includes labelers and modlists. Modlists can be used to mute or block the accounts on them.

yeah should be pretty doable, give me a few days

Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 23/03/2026
I could add a 50k if there’s anyone who would be interested

Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 10/03/2026
A lot of them aren't bots! I uh have to make that very clear, due to a...plethora...of DMs I get 🙃

Yes. On Clearsky, it says you are not on the Unverified lists (look at clearsky.app/doelf.eurosk... ). I think the Listifications notice is no longer accurate. You are not on the lists from your screenshot.

How to get removed: you don't need to bother about this, but if you prefer to be removed from these lists, follow fewer people and you will be removed automatically.

Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 09/03/2026
How it affects your account: some people prefer not to interact with accounts that follow a lot of other accounts, so they will use a modlist hosted by this account to mute or block.

Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 09/03/2026
This account runs automatically maintained moderation lists with preset thresholds for the number of accounts being followed. A quick glance shows you follow >10,000 accounts and are unverified, so you should be on I think 6 modlists.

Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 05/03/2026
Just so you know, the higher threshold lists should be a strict subset of the lower threshold lists, so there’s no particular gain to blocking all three. No real harm either, just more for you to look through if you’re ever trying to figure out why someone’s blocked

Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 19/02/2026
It's more like (over10k following AND (bsky dot social OR otherwise verified)). There's not a ton of folks who are verified but don't have a custom domain, but there's a few
220
Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 29/01/2026
Understood. I wanted to make sure the feature request was not “Bluesky verified, no custom domain” which would be a weird ask
000
Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 28/01/2026
Thanks for the feature request. It seems reasonable, but would it be fair to say “Bluesky verified, domain ignored”?

Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 23/01/2026
Hi! I’m sure you’re a real account. The lists make no differentiation along those lines, they are solely threshold modlists for people who prefer to not interact with accounts that follow a lot of people
120
Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 20/01/2026
Hi, the lists hosted on this account do not take into account ratios, they are simple threshold lists.
000
Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 06/01/2026
If you'd prefer to not be added to the threshold modlists maintained by this account, sure avoid doing follow for follows. But Bluesky is designed to let people use it in different ways, so you should feel free to continue using it as you have, if you prefer.
020
Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 06/01/2026
Hi, you follow over a certain threshold of accounts and have been added to modlists used by people who don’t want to interact with people who follow a lot of accounts.
120
Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 28/12/2025
If the number of accounts you follow ever drops below the thresholds, however, you should be automatically removed. Please DM this account if that does not happen.

Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 28/12/2025
Hi, I apologize for not replying in Korean. Because the lists I host use objective criteria and do not claim that any users are bots, it is unlikely that reporting these lists will result in them being taken down.
110
Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 22/12/2025
I desperately wish Bluesky would let you override a modlist by following accounts or something, so annoying that you can’t
120
Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 04/12/2025
Hi, Tricia. The list you linked is a modlist and so is only useful for blocks and mutes, not as a starter pack. Sorry!
110
Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 26/11/2025
Hey just a note, all but one of those lists are based on the number of accounts being followed, not how many followers they have. If that’s truly the threshold you want, not as useful for you (but I do take feature requests)

“I wanted to ask Jeff why I was on this blocklist but he blocked me” 😶

Automated Lists @automated-lists.bsky.social · 23/11/2025
I use the Over5K modlist as a blocklist on my main account and I find it leads to a broken thread I care about like maybe once a month. It does lead to confusion on the part of people who get blocked sometimes

Charlie Jane was the reason the Unverified list was updated to account for Bluesky verification, and should be off the list now
