So, again today we get another crystal clear example of how #Bluesky is not decentralized. The company just blocked all users from an entire US state and those users are completely cut off. No other way to interact with the Bluesky network.
BECAUSE BLUESKY IS A CENTRALIZED PLATFORM.
Folks on Bluesky. There is a decentralized alternative. Just create an account on any decentralized Mastodon server. You will love it here. Promise.

Paola Clouatre is the mother of a breastfeeding infant and one of tens of thousands of people detained and facing deportation as the Trump administration pushes for immigration officers to arrest 3,000 people a day. Immigration law experts say directives for strict immigrant enforcement have cast away practices of deference previously afforded to military families. Adrian Clouatre says Paola Clouatre accompanied her mother into the country from Mexico more than a decade ago seeking asylum and had been applying for legal status.
