🚨 So the Airbnb CEO & Elon Musk are teaming up on a "Department of Government Efficiency"... aka another billionaire pet project to "fix" the system they profit from. 🙄

Let’s be real—this ain't about efficiency.

Thank you @bsky.app for taking this situation seriously. This is a growing pain that can be quite serious, so your vigilance is much appreciated.
1/ We're experiencing a huge influx of users, and with that, a predictable uptick in harmful content posted to the network.

As a result, for some very high-severity policy areas like child safety, we recently made some short-term moderation choices to prioritize recall over precision.

I’ve mentioned this before, but if you’re short on cash but have an urge to shop, go to your library digital apps and browse the books, audiobooks, movies, shoes, magazines. It works really well to give you the same feeling without spending the cash. (Plus you’re supporting public libraries.) 💙📚

Aggressive advertising ruined our consuming experiences. Television, magazines, radio, newspapers.... and the lines started getting blurry. Now it's free-flying crap sprayed everywhere. Is Bluesky committed to staying ad-free?

Will anything change? This monster has to be stopped. Our souls are being destroyed watching his horrendous genocide of innocent people.
The ICC has issued arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant.

They have been charged with “crimes against humanity and war crimes.”

Not just accused, the man was convicted of rape. The USA chose a convicted rapist to lead their country.
Let us be clear. A man adjudicated as a sexual abuser wants to put multiple men credibly accused of sexual assault/crimes (which they deny) in position of extreme importance. This movement has violence and deep misogyny at its core. This is deeply sick
