That's how you know you've made it in social media

I wonder if they'll ever notice this place. Like. Before a big election or something.

At least this anti-Ukrainian spam seems to get flagged as such in my polish corner of Bluesky. Wondering how long that will last and if we’ll see Jack Dorsey doing fascist salutes on stage too.

it is normal because the platform is growing and then BSKY public blocklist will be bigger to counter this.

It's always been there, it's easier to moderate them out than it is on the alternatives. Would rather still be on bsky/mastodon than whatever the fuck.

Oh, good. I was worried we might actually get to keep a platform free of garbage. Whew. Can’t wait for all those conspiracy nuts to join in too!

Seriously, if someone would just off Putin, that’d be great. Let Russia fall into a little civil war as smaller leaders fight amongst themselves for the scraps.

I am not on that platform but I'll offer a:

This is how smaller communities die. They get infested with state actors and the paradigm shifts on some of the stupidest, dipshit topics.

The nuclear block makes it a fools errand

Gross

I thought I was smelling some more of that over there lately.

"Thank you, AI !"

P.S. If Russians will be in Nurnberg court they will say something like "it's not our fault, it's putin's fault."

Bots. Bots EVERYWHERE

Can they not just block these? I get that this is a never ending battle against troll farms and the like, but is BSky already falling to the "more engagement is better and we don't care if it's nefarious engagement" trap already?

The problem of platforms when they become big. Just like cyber criminals lurk on systems used by the mass to exploit. Things can be used for good and for bad. And its often the small portion of bad that ruins it for large majority. Just like the few football hooligans that screw things up for the rest.

Bad intend or behavior is just hard to manage in a free online world. If Elon is hated then Adrian will take over....
