The obsession with mute / block lists on BlueSky (BlockSky?) is fascinating.

You'd think the app is doomed, but who knows...? #asknostr

Is there enough of a market for this? Like people who are nostalgic for Left Activist Twitter 2015? How did they end up here? I'd be interested to know who BkieSky's target audience were, who they actively reached out to at the beginning? Is this all going to plan for them, is this the app they wanted all along? 🤔

Text within the html file on a website that is invisible on the browser , but if you use a screen reader ie you are blind , then when you hover over elements on the page , the alt= text is spoke n to the user so they can know what is going on in the webpage .

It's bog standard UX , every site does it , I dont know why she is acting like its a big change .

It's "inclusive" of screen readers but to require it as a moral necessity is just conformist groupthink.
