just joined "bluesky" and have learned right off the bat (thanks to a post in the "what's hot" feed) that they opened their website to invite-limited public not just before blocks, but also before adding filtering to prevent children from being served adult content, or any ability to mark a post as being adult content

once again I'm pretty thankful about having signed up for apparently the only website whose founders elected to put some thought into the process before opening it to the public, or indeed at all

Bluesky is not a funny website.

Thought they straight up banned porn? Maybe I'm thinking of a different twitter alternative or something.

that was bluesky saying they'd exclude nudes from the default "what's hot" algorithm feed (there will be a "marketplace" of algorithmic feeds, whatever that means)

yet they did implement the @everyone idea, in what had to be the most "what did you think was going to happen?????" moment ever

turned out what actually happened was that the protocol didn't really cap how many people a single post could tag, and it also didn't actually tie tags to the post text (tags are technically post metadata, not post content)

so if someone were to use a modded client, they could tag several hundred people in a single post, and make up whatever text they wanted for the tag. and that's exactly what happened

I haven't heard much about bluesky so far, but what I did hear sounded quite positive ... silly me for feeling mildly optimistic about it 😂

There's something really frustrating about the original twitter founder making a twitter clone and somehow still making really obvious fuckups like this. One resource that the bluesky team have in abundance is hindsight and historical pitfalls that they could avoid going forward. My guess is that "move fast and break things" mentality took over.

six months or whatever of Elon is enough to make them forget six years of Jack refusing to "ban the Nazis." it's not like he's changed

@flintlock-media5/15/2023, 8:47 AM

Oh good point. I guess I mentally categorised a lot of past Twitter's shit as callowness on the part of the tech entrepreneurs, forgetting that entrepreneurs aren't renowned for thoughtful character growth.

The guy made a roughly infinite amount of money making Twitter exactly the way it was, no amount of zen retreats was going to make him grow into a guy who makes wretched internet holes for the love of game
