The crypto, horny, T-shirt spam and fake Gaze/Ukraine donations bots have noticeably increased the last few days.
I know Bluesky is working on the spam problem. In the meantime, I report+block the posts and then account whenever I see them but I'm hoping someone knows a more efficient solution.
Right!!!???
Sadly if you add "Patriot" to your nuclear block list words, you will block a few thousand more MAGA'ts. I hate it that they have commandeered that term, but here we are.
There is little good from those folks for what they have co-opted over the years. I have an entire drawer of Navy t-shirts and sweatshirts I no longer wear to avoid making people nervous.
There's still a tool you can run in Chrome that replaces words and phrases on web sites. I have "Kardashian" replace itself with "mindless homunculus" and it's just so great.
Honestly they mostly cut & paste their same comments from Shitter for the past 5 years.They are pretty unoriginal if you ask me.
Although, one guy whose profile said he was living off social security posted that he wanted trump to end social security.
That's like removing a danger sign, you might feel better not seeing it, but sometimes you need to keep an eye on the danger to understand what it’s doing.
Followed your example on this, which meant your post albo got muted 🤔 lesson from that: please, do not mentioned them in the future so I can actually see your posts 😀
I try to use other words for those things, but sometimes it's necessary to use them. Muting those words could lead to missing a lot of important articles, discussions, news - or alerts.
Not sure if muting words, just mutes those words or the entire post the words are included in, but if you want a politics free experience, go for it. To each his own. I block individual MAGA accounts, but just haven't muted words.
