Seeing what is doing and that I've only now seen who the old CEO (who hasn't left but moved roles) really is, I no longer care to see posts nor people who bridge from there.

Fuck BlueSky. If I see another service or account being bridged from BlueSky, I will block your instance outright. I don't care.

overaggressive and inconsiderate server blocking is one of the main things turning people away from the fediverse, and this problematic culture needs to stop

bridge blocking will do literally nothing but hurt inoperability, bluesky won't care but bridged accounts in your social circle (or if blocking server wide, your users) will.

Hate the platform, but blocking 40 million users is only going to make your world smaller. I block users, not instances. #Bridgy makes the #Fediverse better.]]>https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://social.encryptomatic.com/objects/4ac10279-60c6-4e59-90e1-3244a799eba2https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://social.encryptomatic.com/objects/4ac10279-60c6-4e59-90e1-3244a799eba2Sat, 18 Apr 2026 01:23:07 GMT<![CDATA[Reply to I have blocked the instance "bsky.brid.gy" and I advise that others do the same to other services doing what they do. on Sat, 18 Apr 2026 00:44:23 GMT]]>@jeremydebose According to the old CEO, BlueSky is coded with AI/LLMs which is unethical...

The old CEO was also a huge transphobe who never apologised for what she did and had platformed transphobic journalist Jesse Singal and also defended transphobes in general.

Not to forget that BlueSky has been VERY sketchy regarding investments from cryptocurrency companies.

I suggest you do some research as well. This instance only gives 500 chars and I don't want to make multiple replies.
