the bsky enshittification speedrun has reached its logical conclusion of platforming government propaganda accounts
@slop i have blocked already but do they have a blue check yet?
@intelectconfig yes. within minutes. DHS’ first post on bsky is a video of jay. yes i am serious.
@gorldotgay @intelectconfig yes. i really really wish i was kidding. i was planning on leaving my acct up and just kind of slowly atrophy away from posting there so i could keep a through line to mutuals, but i really just want to delete right now. gotta be a world record for enshittification of a platform.
@slop @gorldotgay @intelectconfig holy shit! Thank you for reporting this. It it’s time for bluesky to go the way of myspace.
@slop appreciate your reporting
@slop Tbh I think that site was doomed from the get go. There's no way to run a "not toxic" social media platform where the first thing you encounter when you go to someone's profile is a list of people they hate with a "hate all these people with me" sign up button.
@farmgoth like whose profile? and can i go gawk at it even without a bs acct? @slop
@slop i guess the real question is are they here too? I don't know enough about this place yet.

@Te_Kanawa @slop

If they are they would probably be on their own server that can be blocked entirely.

See how the eu commission is set up for example: https://ec.social-network.europa.eu/public/local

Or the French government: https://social.numerique.gouv.fr/public/local

The decentralization here is a lot more fundamental to everything. Truth social is based on mastodon and I think there are a handful of straight up Nazi instances but those are blocked by every instance that I interact with so it's like they don't exist.

European Commission on Mastodon

Mastodon instance managed by the European Commission.

Mastodon hosted on ec.social-network.europa.eu
