I'm begging, I'm BEGGING BlueSky users to have more retraint than on Twitter.
Transphobia, homophobia etc can't spread so easily here because there's no algorithm to do the legwork for them.
Your quote post dunking on them is not important enough to justify the spread.
Block/Report and move on.

On the other place, a QT to dunk added digits to their algo/reach.... While doing it here, you'd be handing hot trash to a friend
Pitch the waste before it piles up like the other place
I do hope moderation lists kinda balance that out. So far I have experienced almost none bigotry or AI trash.
As others have rightly pointed out, screenshotting rather than quoting is no better. You're still allowing the hate to travel and reach the people it's aimed at.
What we don't need is amplifying random accounts that exist purely to spread hate and boost engagement.
Can't even mute the thing properly anymore. This is my life now. Just me and The Machine.
I'm still seeing tweets from certain authors and comedians, you know who I mean, because folk cannot help engaging with them.
There's habits we need to collectively unlearn if we're going to start stomping out hate.
So many dramas in my timeline. All you could do is block and move on. This year taught me a powerful lesson to just move forward and not give the enemy attention.
