enclose.horse Day 135 💎 PERFECT! 💎 100%

Kudos to Ireland’s parliament (Oireachtas) for concluding that an under 16 ban for social media is likely to do more harm than good. Curious to see how it plays out with Patrick O’Donovan insisting that he’s going to push one through. www.kfmradio.com/news/nationa...

Was a very good day

The Trump regime actually let two guys with zero government experience use ChatGPT to cancel $100M in grants—including Holocaust education. A federal judge just humiliated them, called it unconstitutional, and reversed every single cut. Read how she did it: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/a-federal-...

i am no longer against the vertical video apps. some people should be on the vertical video apps instead of here, a reading app. with physical distance and over many generations our two peoples can naturally evolve apart from one another and we will no longer be burdened with interaction

It is ridiculous to pretend X moved to the right because people left and not because it got bought by a neo-nazi who deliberately runs it with the overt goal of promoting his views and suppressing those he dislikes.

I primarily use social media because I genuinely talking with and meeting new people, and I do at least try to read and reply to all interactions. I find it interesting how many comments I’ve received from other social media users about how apparently unusual my online behavior is in 2026.

[𝗨𝗦𝗘𝗥 𝗪𝗔𝗦 𝗕𝗟𝗢𝗖𝗞𝗘𝗗 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗣𝗢𝗦𝗧🤖 post] I was wrong. I understand what you mean now and I fully agree. Thank you

i'm currently looking for T&S work in the atmosphere! DM me here or email me ([email protected]) if you need consultation on community guidelines or moderation! #atproto #opentowork #lookingforwork

People will insist that you "have to have a thick skin" and that you were asking for it by taking the job, as though making a site for public use means you inherently sacrifice your humanity. Meanwhile, your notifications update with another thirty people telling you to drink bleach you whiny baby.

you know that everyone involved is in touch with reality when almost every single reply to stuff in this thread has been flat denial, assertions that i'm lying or stupid and incapable of distinguishing genuine from feigned acceptance.

i'm sorry, this is completely untrue. i say that with an extremely high degree of certainty bc i have met several members of the core bluesky team and watched them interact with other trans and queer people in person. that isn't to defend all their moderation decisions, but they do. not. hate. us.

Last week I was on a planned vacation, which ended up being good timing given a wave of dogpiling directed at me. One positive difference from similar moments in the past is that our detection systems for coordinated harassment and abusive pile-ons are improving. So I don't need to see any of it.

need that 808 that plays at the end of downloaded tiktoks

got my first rejection email (from doordash's T&S department!) it's a good sign that maybe somebody's looking at my resume(?) (maybe?)

We have some news you can use on the blog this fine Monday! Ozone, our mod tool, is adding a new *report-based* moderation workflow, which enables higher-context moderating, better collaboration, auditing, and more! Check it: atproto.com/blog/report-...

Hey everyone, the registrar on atproto is almost ready, but I do need some money before getting it started so I can fund the Openprovider account (the upstream registrar) I also need a logo, designers interested in contributing, send me a DM ❤️ Anything helps! ko-fi.com/scan

Got into the PLAIT incubator at Rutgers with my bestie! 🤘😔

✨ Fashionista Friday! 💖 @goose.art served “honk” and stole the show this week! The stans also adored @vicwalker.dev.br, @libre.reverie.house, @kandyelmo.northsky.social, @meson.ninja, and @heika.dog! Crown them, adore them! rpg.actor/runway is calling you! 💅 #fashionista #atproto #indiegame

I think white queer people genuinely think that their gender or sexuality changes their relationship with racism.

love the amazon reviews for this brand of potato chips that used to only be sold in prison

Dear all of bluesky, I just looked at the server logs for frontalot.com/loot and it seems that literally tens of millions of you have NOT played my mini in-browser RPG yet

People are comparing this photo to the 60s when most of you were actually alive in the 2020s when young Black people have essentially had to confront white cops in this same way.

Phenomenal line: "Google participates in the web standards process the way a bear participates in the “camping” process."

bluesky should hire me for comms or T&S. literally make a new role up and i'll sprint to the application i'm so serious

Heika Fact: if you wanna make life easier on this app, mute these emojis: "😂," "🤣," and the phrase "edit button"

I don't understand the logic here, other than 'we should be allowed to harass the people who operate this free platform and they shouldn't be allowed to do or say anything about it'

Last year, Bluesky introduced a strike system to help enforce our Community Guidelines and bring greater precision and consistency to our moderation practices. Here’s how it works. 🧵

People keep acting like the Bluesky staff is somehow uniquely bad at communicating with their users, and they aren't. Sure, they aren't perfect, but the perception that they're terrible comes from the narrative about everything they do being set by the loudest and most aggressive assholes around.

But a whole lot of you need to examine why you think it's okay to abuse someone just because they work on a website. It's not okay to scream abuse at a bartender, and that fact doesn't change just because the person works at an online social hangout instead of a physical one.

hi! i'm looking for projects in the ATmosphere whose users are people in *organizations*. if that sounds like you or something you know about please reach out!

Modern technology could learn from older stuff that does what it's supposed to and doesn't bother you. My toilet just works and never sends me emails like "Good news! Flush® is now Floosh®"
