one of the reasons bluesky works differently is because early users waged a successful fight to get the devs to prioritize safety features to protect communities at risk as a result bluesky now has a suite of controls that i think are unmatched on social media here’s the list, lmk what i’ve missed

A Probably Incomplete List of Bluesky User Safety Mechanisms

Protecting your posts
• disabling replies on your posts
• limiting replies on your posts to people you follow, mention, or include in specific lists
• disabling quote posting on your posts
• detaching your post from someone else's quote
• changing the above interaction settings even after a post is sent hiding replies to your posts for yourself or for everyone
• self-labeling your media for adult or graphic content to protect other users
• limiting account visibility only to logged in users
• note: this is not 100% enforceable but all major bluesky clients and apps support it

Limiting your interaction
• blocking users from seeing or interacting with your posts
• if you block after an interaction, they vaporize
• if they've replied already, the entire thread below their reply is cauterized for everyone, floating in space detached from your post
• note: your blocks are publicly visible via 3rd party apps
• muting users to remove them from your notis and feeds, and hide them in replies
• note: your mutes are private
• muting or blocking entire moderation lists of users
• note: inclusion in a list is public via third party apps. muting a list is private, blocks via a list are public
• subscribing to other people's mod lists
• note: your subscription is private, muting & blocking work the same
• subscribing to labelers (moderation services) from bluesky or third parties
o decide whether to show, warn, or hide posts that have been labeled in each category
• report content that should be labeled to bluesky and/or third parties labelers

It's great to see so many academics and some journalists moving to Bluesky. I think another key to cementing Twitter/X's irrelevance is to get politicians out of there and over here too. Anyone doing a #cdnpoli Starter Pack for politicians?

Freshly updated Law Starters. It's a law starter pack for all of us new here and enjoyed Lawtwitter in the before times. To be added, throw me a follow or just ask. Only adding accounts with profiles and posts to mitigate bots. Follow & support each other. go.bsky.app/FFBDDa3

Welcome to bsky Kyle! I've been compiling a list of all Canadian law faculty here - hard to see who the members are, but literally any law faculty, grad student, adjunct or research centre I've been finding as been added to this list. You're on it too now: bsky.app/profile/did:...

Hopefully the people who run this platform fully understand the many reasons why a mass exodus of people has fled toxic X, and will do their best to ensure this place never becomes anything like that.
