Yet another “libertarian” licking authoritarian boots.
Should be noted that to my understanding it only restricts visibility of this account on the official bluesky client. And only inside turkey. the accounts are not banned. the owners can still access them.
And third party clients (which can ignore the moderation-labels) can still see and interact with those accounts just fine. even inside turkey.
It still sucks that they bend the knee though.
So bluesky isn’t free. And it’s American. Deleted my account yesterday.
Sadly, many people I know are staying there instead of figuring Mastodon or Friendica out.
Fun fact: if you mess up captcha verification (due to Internet connection or your human error) during account creation, your account gets instantly suspended and then you receive a shady email that is actually from Bluesky, saying you should send them via email a picture of your ID.
This probably wouldnt make sense in a decentralized platform- oh
(Dunno if it’s apparent, but this is a criticism to the bluesky platform being heavily centralized)
B-B-But Bluesky is b-b-better!!!
I mean, it’s still objectively better but certainly not perfect. Anything that takes from swastikarmaker is a net positive.
Switch to Mastodon.
