Reminder: Don’t just block on Bluesky, report. This place actually will ban trolls and harassment.
Second pro-tip: My comment section is a great place to practice this.

I tried talking to them before Nov 6th. Now I just don’t see the point of even trying.
They are all in the FAFO stage.
That’s my hope, but they’ll probably try to blame us anyway.
But how, precisely, do you recommend blocking them? Which specific options? I have mild autism, so dishonesty (if there is any involved) is complicated for me.
context: this account is part of a hate group harassing trans people in violation of bluesky TOS/community guidelines 2b/2c. they repost content on twitter to get trans people doxxed or killed. please deactivate the account.
On x with Elmo.
Yet somehow I still managed to wind up in Facebook jail repeatedly over utter nonsense (TikTok violates for "🤮") and within seconds of appealing I was given a lifetime ban and my account and everything in it got instantly deleted.

but in *my* decades of experience online literally nothing you do will change a troll's narrative that lefties are ban happy cowards, much like nothing a democrat can do will stop a republican from calling them a communist
if *that* were your concern i'd think twice
It’s a substantial blocklist in its own right 😅

It's fulfilling, like squeegeeing one's windshield with no streaks.
it's one mass block button! 😍
What a kind person for putting together this list.
There are fake lists going around where they appear to be blocking transphobes and MAGAs, but then they switch up and add trans people
Here's one with every account (so far) following LoTT.

Though IDK how much I'll be adding to this for the near future simply due to how many there are and a lack of tools to automate it.

Though TBH blocking them was a bit satisfying. Maybe I'll still catch some before you.
Just my opinion 🤷🏻♂️
I generally subscribe to new lists by other people on Mute, instead of Block. That way if bad actors pop up I have some context on what has previously gotten them on a list and can manually block/report myself.
Always vet lists before subscribing!
Holy crap what is on that list!!!
Or one of the random doctors who likes a surgical mask or stethoscope in his profile pic and then posts body building shots.
But love the block function for sure.

Point Break.
*puts on sunglasses*
Report. Provide external evidence in your reports, it's admissible per ToS. Block after.
As a programmer, this suggests deliberate function rather than a bug.
Though, I'm hoping to reduce my FB intake.
A single repeated reply shuts them down quick...

I think there should be a few more categories to make the process simpler.

Are you afraid that the new administration will take away our access to HRT federally? How likely is this? I am terrified currently and having a hard time making sense of what can and cannot surely happen. I know we won’t always know until it happens.
Much love. 🏳️⚧️
step 1️⃣ check their feed & review their friends 🤢 if any mutuals, I may unfollow (but not report or block) YOU
2️⃣ Report content on each🧌 acct if deserved. Where you see one there’s a doz 🧌🧌. Then …
3️⃣ block applicable acct.
It’s up to us to keep BlueSky 🧌 free.
