is there a button to just block them all?

skywitches.net•212 days ago

Tap Subscribe, then tap Block. ^_^

streetpass.bsky.social•212 days ago

awesome thanks!!

ashye.bsky.social•213 days ago

This is so confident, thank you!

mattyifyanasty.off.camera•214 days ago

thanks Ms. Penny!

stavinair.bsky.social•213 days ago

Huh, didn't know this is a thing. Neat

superfroggyjosh.bsky.social•213 days ago

Dude I just blocked more transphobes in seconds than what would take me days on Twitter.

Holy shit thank you!

rssc.bsky.social•214 days ago

Thank youuuuy

thecrimsontint.com•214 days ago

What an absolute delight. Lists are so good for this. The replies here instantly got much cleaner. How pleasant. Ty!

zankamishima.bsky.social•213 days ago

I really appreciate these. I was going to make one myself, in fact (for zoos because I came across one), but I can't figure out how to do it.

fishy270.bsky.social•211 days ago

How can I make one?

skywitches.net•211 days ago

Settings -> Moderation -> Moderation Lists -> + New, then the … menu on a user profile, pick Add to Lists.

pnwmelissa.bsky.social•210 days ago

Thanks!

Thanks

airwolf.bsky.social•191 days ago

Sorry, how can I piggyback on existing lists of fash trolls, transphobes, etc.?

skywitches.net•190 days ago

You can subscribe to lists people make, yeah!

https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:jagldyome3h27twtp46nxen7/lists/3kc6umbcl452c

Hit Subscribe and Block Accounts

There’s a half-dozen-ish mod lists I keep up

dukat.bsky.social•214 days ago

Why thank you for having this. Pre-emptive blocking is a good thing.

bansidhe.bsky.social•214 days ago

Thank you!

jtothe.bsky.social•191 days ago

Ohhh, I had to go through this one and the nazi one manually, because there were several names I saw that gave me so much joy to actually go into their profile and hit block. Thank you this was useful!

skywitches.net•191 days ago

Subscribing is the better way, I feel. I do know how satisfying it is to “pop the pimples” one by one, though ^_^

spacedad.bsky.social•213 days ago

Dang, that's handy.

sweetfei.bsky.social•213 days ago

is there any way we can report not the list itself, but the people in it as a whole? going through one by one would be a chore, but i'll do it if there's no other way...

skywitches.net•213 days ago

You shouldn’t.

Every person on my transphobia list had some item which was transphobic which I’ve directly reported.

BlueSky T&S looks for sustained, diverse reports of violations, rather than focused clusters - Violations over multiple items, over time - before suspending an account.

sweetfei.bsky.social•213 days ago

yes ma'am! thank you for that information :)

skywitches.net•213 days ago

The lists I run are so people don’t have to be burdened, psychically, with the trauma offered by the members.

sweetfei.bsky.social•213 days ago

that's really sweet of you, i'm glad you're doing this!

opensecretalien.bsky.social•214 days ago

Wow. That's so easy, I felt physical relief.

siennabun.bsky.social•214 days ago

Thanks a bunch!!!

simplyjennifer.bsky.social•214 days ago

Thank you!

desertheartsfan.bsky.social•213 days ago

WTH is a left-of-centre Dr Who fan of ALL things doing in with that bunch of rabble

skywitches.net•213 days ago

I usually keep a set of evidence.

This user referenced has made multiple posts over 7 months referencing “trans activists”, stereotyping trans women as violent men, etc.

Being self-described as left-of-center is no guarantee of compassion. Being a Dr Who fan is no guarantee.

godribbon.bsky.social•214 days ago

How do you actually block a list? I only see the options to subscribe, share, and report

skywitches.net•214 days ago

You tap / click Subscribe, and it opens to give you the option to either Block or Mute.

That is a little confusing. I should figure out how to submit that suggestion without pinging a developer 😅

aaronsofaer.bsky.social•214 days ago

GitHub Issue?

godribbon.bsky.social•214 days ago

Ah that IS confusing, thank you!

clairestranstalks.bsky.social•213 days ago

oh thats incredibly useful.

Thanks so much.

ararebeast.bsky.social•213 days ago

I just searched for "blocklist" and this was the first result. How did it know just what I was looking for?

Thank you for this. I'm not surprised to find someone I already blocked for another reason on here.

lindabee.bsky.social•214 days ago

Thank you!

beegaydoocrimes.bsky.social•214 days ago

Thanks!

sairyfairy.bsky.social•214 days ago

Thank you!

katebaucherel.bsky.social•213 days ago

This is really useful too. You subscribe and can select ‘warn’ and it labels accounts. I see quite the intersection! Also allows posts to be reported not just to moderators but to this list for new labels. https://bsky.app/profile/asukafield.xyz

isaac32767.picknit.com•214 days ago

The people on your list seem irritating in general, independent of their transphobia. Not surprising, I guess.

skywitches.net•214 days ago

They’re on there because they weren’t shy or quiet about their bigotry 😀

I have a whole, boring methodology for determining “is it bigotry” that I won’t bore y’all with, but usually there’s no question 😅

isaac32767.picknit.com•214 days ago

Does your methodology involve a device that measures eyerolls?

skywitches.net•214 days ago

Ahah I wish it were that easy

I use ontologies from published literature about labeling intolerance in online text discourses, ranging from sneering & factionalisation, radicalisation, targeted harassment & hate speech.

ziaturtle.bsky.social•211 days ago

Interesting. I would agree that based on a quick view of all those profiles that they all deserve blocking, except for one guy that literally has “gay/trans ally” in his bio and maybe 6 posts. My curiousity about why he was on this list brings the whole process into question.

skywitches.net•211 days ago

You are able to maintain a blocklist for transphobes you encounter, too ^_^ you don’t need to trust me. You can copy any part of any of my lists.

He’s on the list because he was transphobic towards someone.

isaac32767.picknit.com•214 days ago

Huh. That actually sounds the opposite of boring.

cptcasey.bsky.social•214 days ago

Well now I feel like we need a PowerPoint presentation from you in particular 😀

meganox.bsky.social•214 days ago

respect. I just vibe.

leegallyred.bsky.social•214 days ago

Thanks for this. I absolutely love how easy it is to block all of them in one go. 😎

lillynorthmusic.bsky.social•213 days ago

Big ol thank you for that

salix.bsky.social•214 days ago

Thanks, I have blocked it. A statement I’m happy to make.

soydanboi.bsky.social•214 days ago

Tbh I’m still kind of bothered Bsky let’s folk like this stay here any longer than they should :o7 I am grateful for the list but, I’d be even happier if they were all gone.

skywitches.net•214 days ago

BlueSky’s moderation service uses many layers, because people can sometimes word things badly, they can be misinformed, they can change their views and their hearts.

There’s levels of bigotry & harassment the Trust & Safety department *absolutely* action promptly and permanently for, though.

cptcasey.bsky.social•214 days ago

That's amazing. I also noticed some users tagged with "intolerant" or "impersonation" - I assume these are official tags by Bluesky, not users? Could help make identification easy.

skywitches.net•214 days ago

Yes! Labels are applied by labelers, and everyone using https://bsky.social hosting are automatically subscribed to the BlueSky moderation labels, & you can adjust what those labels do, in your Preferences

soydanboi.bsky.social•214 days ago

That makes a lot of sense tbh, thank you for taking the time to explain that to me! :o) I’m glad Bsky at least handles it when it gets to be unbearable
