Blockers wield a lot of power on the #bluesky platform. Not only can you destroy someone's access to you, you also destroy anyone else's ability to view your past interactions, effectively burning history in the process.

It keeps the entire platform conformist to the same set of views, because mass blocks on an account will ostracize and memory-hole them. It's the ultimate "safe-space" social network; a working prototype of a digital gulag.

If you're curious, I was told to "tip fat sex workers" and she didn't like the joke.

The worst part is that I only got a glance at her profane reply in my notifications because I can't see the reply in the app. Sad 😢

There's no such thing as "sex workers."

Just monetized whores.

I understand the joke now and LOL! 👍🤣

#blocksky (unfortunate coincidence with jack's company)

Let me see if I understoond.. I could go there, interact in every single post you ever made and if I block you afterwards I'll throw all your posts and notes into oblivion ?

Say you did that. If a third person comes along and goes to PotatoBTC's page, they will not be able to see any of Oshtor's comments on any of Potato's posts. Nor will they see the contents of anything Oshtor quote reposted from Potato, like the screenshot above.

Naturally, you and I will never see anything of each other until you lift the block. But the interesting thing is that no one else can see anything we said to each other. They'd only see one side or the other, depending on who they're looking at.

If I posted a lie and you corrected me, someone would either only see the lie or the correction, but not both together. And vice versa if you posted the truth and I posted a lie in response.

The propagandized population is more likely to be the blocking population. The truth seekers will allow dissenting opinions to stand the test of time and not block people as much. Followers on either side will only see the views of their own side, never the dissenting view.

That's really dangerous if you ask me

I agree. It naturally forms echo chambers via the elimination of dissent.

Oshtor 1y ago

True and it's even worst than your avarage social media because the whole point of bluesky is to make this echo chambers it seems

Bluesky is doing more harm than good, it is a big circus pretending to be a solution. Not to mention the Bluesky software code is very poor in quality and the platform is starting to concentrate their power to rule the 'decebtralised' network of it. They're just a joke, a shame, and nothing else.

Sounds like exactly the kind of thing nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m would build.

Two platforms. Two completely opposite plays.

I think he made the perfect hedge supporting both nostr and bluesky.

I always make a donation to the church after I beat my wife.

Two opposite plays ...

It's called an indulgence. You get those when you have the 💲💲💲

Institutions have been corrupt a long time.

Works for nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m and for me.

Bluesky solves nothing. It just keeps encouraging the same garbage that legacy socials have been doing, just to a whole other extreme via content moderation from blocking. Just absurd. Why willingly stick your head in digital sand?
