There are two rules in life: 1) Never give out all the information.
There is no point in trolling if no one sees it. User control over our feeds is great. Including the ability to fully hide from everyone, unwanted replies, and block those people. If i hide a reply from a troll from everyone, no one sees it. Moderation is great Really helps engagement
"We cannot continue to participate in the social network feed of a man who proclaims the death of the media and therefore of journalists... X is a platform that no longer serves the public interest at all, but the special ideological and financial interests of its owner and his political allies"

Brian Tyler Cohen@briantylercohen.bsky.social · 2y agoIf you needed even MORE of a reason to switch to Bluesky, China is "troubled" by the fact that they've invested so much time on Twitter buying ads, bots, and influencers... only to see the people they're seeking to manipulate (us) flee the site. www.semafor.com/article/11/2...
“Developing its own take on Bluesky’s ‘Starter Packs’” is a nice way of putting it.
TechCrunch@techcrunch.com · 2y agoMeta’s Threads is developing its own take on Bluesky’s ‘Starter Packs’
