I got you! She owns her own public domain. You can use that to register your handle as you. In your settings click change handle and I have my own domain. ✅
ohh this is so sly and dirty! I don't even want to block it because in case Politics girl get's her hands on it. thanks for posting that. Be interesting to see how this pans out.
When the Brazilian invasion happened, a relatively big number of "famous" (or important) handles (international or Brazilian) were taken by fakes. Those that cared to stay here recovered them, those that don't are still very active at X.
Says “Handle for sale” in the imposter account. Feels like something that should be able to be reported. A predatory move to shakedown potential users.
I'm sorry but just because you migrate from Twitter and someone has the handle you used there doesn't make them horrible so explain please why I should block this person who has posted nothing offensive.
I don't fuck around, I blocked them all. You should make a list of the people that we might want to follow, that have joined us here. Something we can click and follow. You would know the real people on here, its hard to tell.
Block lists are useful to weed out the majority of them.
A few will slip through the cracks here or there, but it's still better than manually blocking 100+ jerks/ trolls/ or other harassers.
For anyone else that wants to be 'cute', I have a right to ignore people that I don't want to be bothered by. If you want to be exposed to toxic crap, then go back to the other place.
If you want to have a civil discussion, then don't be an ass about what others want to be exposed to.
yup, between the scammers, and the MAGA trolls who are coming here because there are so few progressives left on Twitter to piss off, I'm afraid we're about to go through some things....(to coin a phrase)
I just bought the bsky-verified.com and bsky-verified.us domains. I was thinking of providing others with .bsky-verified.com and .us if they were interested. I would be happy to help.
Judging by this growth counter https://bcounter.nat.vg/
moderation is going to be difficult for the bsky team. We need to help them somehow besides just reporting. Idk how though, aside from adding trolls to lists.
Absolutely 💯- shared block lists are the way to go. Allowing people to subscribe to auto block the same people as others. Combing this with Ai 🤖 should make a dent

Surely that’s against the terms of service to offer a handle for sale on the actual platform?
Will be very interesting to see

You can report the account as an impersonation and I suppose she could reach out to @safety.bsky.app or @support.bsky.team for assistance.

Thanks for the heads up!
Maybe MTN should start a social media forum, to counter (un)truth social...
