I wish there was a bluesky with less moderation. I don’t want bots and spam, but since I can control my own feeds and the mute functions actually work, I can shape it better than the other networks let me. I think that should be the real goal.
- pjc50 2y agoYou can actually unsubscribe from default moderation, and there's quite a lot of NSFW on there if you want it. There are some things they won't host, but it may be possible to work around that with your own PDS.
- eightysixfour 2y agoI meant more along the lines of kicking off people with viewpoints their user base doesn’t like. The Lauren Loomer’s of the world. I vehemently disagree with every thing she stands for and I agree that Bluesky has a right to ban her. But long run, I think we suffer when the biggest platforms turn into partisan black holes. I want a platform that is accessible to "normal" people, spends tons of effort blocking bots, has a UX that makes it easy to manage content you do and don’t see, and is open to any human to speak.

- eightysixfour 2y agoThis comes up in most bluesky threads. I honestly can’t tell you what it is but every experience I have with Mastodon sucks. Maybe you can point me in a better direction. I want a platform that: • blocks bots and maybe doesn’t allow companies as users • user control first (blocking, custom algos, smart word filtering, content/topic based filtering) • does not deplatform users for their views • has community notes
