Just as I start to warm to TOP I find they're campaigning for deregulation of gene-editing. In fact they have been at it for at least 4 years:

> Do you have a current version of Element? Mine is 1.5.32 from F-Droid

Same. But I used the Labs to switch the old UI back on.

> click on layout settings

Thanks, but this is not under the 3 dot menu in this version. Settings is there, but there's no 'Layout' in the settings menu.

> I just want everyone to come together as one big happy extremely dysfunctional family.  Is that too much to ask?

I think this sums it up pretty well:

> If people don't like one persons posts the answer is to block that user, not a bridge

I'm sympathetic to that position, but what if you're being dogpiled by accounts from one server? Blocking a server can be the only way to avoid playing whack-a-mole with an army of sockpuppets.

> Disabling the bridge would be fediblock on steroids.

I think Rabble was referring to Nostr users disabling the bridge for their accounts. Am I barking up the wrong tree there nostr:npub1wmr34t36fy03m8hvgl96zl3znndyzyaqhwmwdtshwmtkg03fetaqhjg240?

> Once porn is illegal worldwide we need to gut all forms of blocking

This kind of hyperbolic attitude is precisely the reason some fedizens are looking sideways at the whole idea of Nostr bridges.

> check out the Bluesky Terms of Service for using the AT Protocol

The wording here is unclear on whether these ToS apply to any use of the AT Protocol. I'm guessing it's just ToS for using bsky.social, because any protocol encumbered with this kind of legal baggage is a non-starter. I imagine things will become clearer once the number of instances federating over AT is >1.
