welcome twitter people. actually, the block changes didnt affect me, because i had only a single person blocked: the one guy who kept showing up on my FYP even though i never, ever interacted with any of his posts - ThreadSky

I'm so glad I was never on twitter, it always sounded like a bad, angry place.

wunk.bsky.social•115 days ago

I blocked a guy that put me on a "hit list" on linkedin and he went on a hunger-strike, refused to pay rent, and posted his taxes X because he considered a bunch of ppl "fraudulent actors in the industry"
He was rly super destructive and insecure and is celebrating the new Block implementation on X

wunk.bsky.social•115 days ago

So yeah the block feature is very important to me lmao

pikat.io•115 days ago

technically people could bypass that by creating a new account, but that costs money now? i think? im not up to date on their shenanigans

wunk.bsky.social•115 days ago

Brand new fresh accounts are the most algorithmically "oppressed" apparently and hit a lot of anti-spam-account speed-bumps before being able to reply/dm people, all of which can be bypassed by buying a checkmark I think though so it costs money to be a troll and I kinda think they want that lol

politics aside, that guy was just not a very interesting poster. just QRTs the most inane things with one word captions like "Concerning..."

Oh yeah that guy! I never liked that guy!

homestar.bsky.social•115 days ago

Why didn't he just retweet those posts if he agrees with and wants to share them, why bother QRTing with a total non-addition? Is he so self-important that he feels the need to inject himself into everything even if he has literally nothing to say about it? Honestly sounds like super weird behavior

pikat.io•115 days ago

if he had just RT instead of QRT i wouldnt have known to block him

hazel-lattey.bsky.social•115 days ago

he really was one of the most dogshit posters on the entire site

pepa.saygex.gay•115 days ago

interesting... 👀

ptkamen.bsky.social•115 days ago

I did the same thing. Then I started to count how long it would take for me to get ejected from there, but I never did. The worst is that he's here too, his posts are just not artificially boosted.

ricepounder.bsky.social•114 days ago

Yea, I'm trying to avoid the spammers that do that. It just feels like there's no personality behind what they do and plus I'm not really interested in their stuff.
I'm enjoing bsky so far and hope that it stays fresh.

Concerning...

looking into this...

zayzyverse.bsky.social•115 days ago

Before I deactivated I had blocked/muted hundreds of accounts that basically spammed replies with random videos or promoted their OF

I wanted to see peoples reactions to the post not a video that has nothing to do with it

perturbedarts.bsky.social•115 days ago

same here, that's when I jist started blocking most of people + the ones that wrote 3-5 seperate comments with emojis

older-one.bsky.social•115 days ago

Yeah but those accounts still wouldn't be able to reply after the changes, would they? The change concerns account visibility, which is useless for those kinds of accounts (probably bots)

enehashtag.bsky.social•114 days ago

The moment I started seeing Elon on my fyp again I immediately remembered I hate twitter

brachyzoid.bsky.social•115 days ago

The only blocks I made were bots

tazphoenix.bsky.social•115 days ago

I kept having the same thing happen to me like wtf

zyxey.bsky.social•115 days ago

I blocked like twelve stalkers who sent me gore and nudes I ain't ever going back to that shit site again LOL

dining-rush.bsky.social•114 days ago

I blocked some guy named after a smell and various p0rn bots that keep following me
I didn't know they even changed it

saeedmovic.bsky.social•115 days ago

I think I blocked upwards of 200 accounts in a hopeless effort to clean up my timeline. Didn’t do much, unfortunately.
