She has set her Bluesky message so that only approved people can reply, so she support blocking human persons on Bluesky, but thinks book media blocking is a bad idea. Typical Bluesky attitude, that burning books is bad, but burning people with blocking is good.

Because book burning is 1930's Germany bad and 2025 USA tweet-burning is fine.

@krystyna It is done on a per-message basis, not per-account.

If you look at the left bottom where it has the number of replies, it is "grayed out" indicating it is blocked for me as a Bluesky user.

@krystyna "So NOT wholescale."

You seem to have entirely misunderstood my point.

1. "So NOT wholescale." - do you think Germany burned every book in 1930's?

Burning only SOME bluesky messages is the same, people are not burning EVERY single message on the Internet. It's just a media ecology difference of electronic Unicode vs. paper printed book pages.

That account has NOT blocked the world out in replies.

Have a nice day.

@krystyna How do you know they haven't blocked entire human persons? They don't publish a log of who they block.

How much have you been analyzing Bluesky? Do you know this person?

I've been in social media professionally since 1983, so I'm trying to understand, but your messages seem to just be to hand-wave away the topic of Unicode electronic messages vs. book burning / banning.
