Unless of course you say something that pisses off the BS mod cabal, or you are deliberately mass-reported by some clique of users, then your account will be immediately banned. Or even worse, your account made it onto some pre-shared blacklist so you'll be invisible before you say a word.

BS is an attempt to recreate an even more toxic environment than old Twitter ever was.

Which is all very high school cafeteria-drama.

The various blocklists are opt-in; you’ll only be invisible to their respective subscribers. Only the default bluesky moderation list is global, and they only adjudicate ToS violations (like every other social network).

Community moderation is quite distributed and egalitarian on bsky, perhaps even more so than the benevolent dictatorship used here (which obviously doesn’t scale).

On Bsky I have yet to have anyone out of the blue, with no prior interaction, call me a slur or racial epithet. Can’t say the same about my old Twitter account.

And of course it's also opt in as well. Just the default bluesky client does that by default. Any third party client (ex: https://deer.social or https://zeppelin.social) can opt-out of "default moderation". And technically you could use a userscript or even potentially a ublock rule/filter to disable default moderation (just like you can to disable regional moderation or age verification).

This means it's opt-out. Not opt-in.
