Musk, continuing to destroy Twitter. I wonder if his next move will be to reduce the character count of Tweets?

I was promised by numerous people that Musk would have destroyed that site within a year (and no, rebranding it as X doesn't count as destroying it).

This just makes it easier to push fake tweets since good luck searching a feed without knowing when the tweet was made.

Vy is probably talking about the fact that Nazis don't have free speech on bluesky because it actually has moderation

You can actually choose the moderation rules you're subjected to on there. Not sure if any of them allow for the same sort of Nazi shitposting that's prevalent on Twitter. Also that's kind of irrelevant since people on bluesky tend to just block people enmasse anyways regardless of how you're moderated.

That's the point though. Self moderation via blocking is vastly superior than having babysitters reviewing millions of reports. If someone wants to see Nazi shit posting, all they have to do is not block those people.

It does moderate Nazi shit but there's a lot of Nazis who just post shit like "LOLOLOL YOU LOST GET OVER IT ECHO CHAMBER" that they don't moderate.

The moderation team there is pretty small right now despite quadrupling it.

I wouldn't be surprised if this is to make potential legal proceedings more difficult in cases where Tweets need to be viewed and Twitter itself needs to be subpeonaed.

Literally nobody in this topic said that

What they said was that most people on Bluesky just block troll/Nazi accounts rather than engaging with them

They absolutely do moderate the posts when they're reported and have been transparent about the fact that it takes them a while to get through the report queue since all the right-wingers who don't want to use Bluesky because of all the liberals are now coming over to Bluesky specifically to troll the liberals and spread hate speech

Report + block is the preferred tactic on Bluesky because it gets the post/account in the moderation queue while starving them of attention at the same time, as opposed to the Twitter technique of "just try to dunk on them for internet points".

If that's all they post that probably shouldn't be moddable? It's childish bullshit but it's not actually racist or offensive. That's just an average trump supporter post.

I guess if they got dozens and dozens of reports the message should probably be deleted, but that doesn't seem ban worthy or anything

I'm not sure how effective it is, but you can compile and share entire lists of blocked accounts for people to follow that allows them to block the same people too. Imagine if you could post your CE block/ignore list for everyone to follow and then when they do follow the list their account automatically blocks/ignores the same exact people.

Exactly. That's what I'm saying. But if you go on there posting horribly racist shit you will be banned.

There's a literal badge of pride going on right now among Nazis there called "Intolerance" they will flag your account based on your content and the intolerance flag is the most rare one since it's easy to overstep and get banned. So all the far right Twitter shitters go posting on Bluesky trying to get that flag.

It's very effective. The guy maintaining it works very hard on it.

He has other lists too but that's the main one that keeps 99% of the trash out of your feed.

how many are there and where are you finding them? because as much of a cesspool twitter is and always has been i don't see rampant racism and hitler worship there. i've been clicking all sorts of random shit lately and it's mostly segmented echo chambers and sometimes idiots bickering. one time a few months ago i found a thread about how some famous photo from the holocaust was faked and there was like 5 fucking likes but hitting ctrl f on this thread makes you think it would have 3000 replies and 5 million views or some shit.
