The Philadelphia Inquirer has. The problem is that Donald Trump and his supporters don't care what the editorial boards of the Philadelphia Inquirer, the New York Times, or the Washington Post have to say about him.
Because there are a lot of dishonest people who claim they're only criticizing Hamas, when they are actually calling for violence against all Palestinians.
"Harbu Darbu" is a perfect example of that.

Aegis, the largest third-party moderation service, has shut down.
Taurus Shield will expand the scope of their responsibilities as a result.
People here just downvote anything they don't like even if it's in its own community
Depends on the server you’re on. Lemmy found popularity when a group of communists had their subreddit(s)banned
That's actually part of the reason why the original devs started Lemmy.
Bridgy Fed is one of the efforts aimed at connecting the fediverse with the web, Bluesky and, perhaps later, other networks like Nostr.
I guess I'm having trouble communicating why this excites me so much. I'm impressed I created to create a custom feed that I personally found useful, despite not knowing how to code. I'll have to check out Misskey or Calckey later.
Yes, but I could do this on my own without any coding, and use it directly within the app
My own custom feed is how I get my news.
The level of control Bluesky gives users with custom feeds is simply incredible. I could recreate the Mastodon newsfeed without any coding whatsoever.
All I had to do was create a feed on Skyfeed that
- Inputs @aendra.com's list of verified news agencies (+ a couple of unofficial news accounts)
- sort using the HackerNews ranking algorithm
That's all I needed to do. Here is my tweaked version of this (no login necessary)..
JSON
{ "displayName": "📰News (Trending)", "blocks": [ { "type": "input", "inputType": "list", "id": "aaao2rd2fwsmg", "": 86400, "listUri": "at://did:plc:kkf4naxqmweop7dv4l2iqqf5/app.bsky.graph.list/3jzmo456b6j2t" }, { "type": "input", "inputType": "list", "id": "aaaknghipawwq", "listUri": "at://did:plc:kkf4naxqmweop7dv4l2iqqf5/app.bsky.graph.list/3kc3ye6hmsd2y", "historySeconds": 86400 }, { "type": "input", "inputType": "list", "id": "aaae7ioefxgno", "listUri": "at://did:plc:sbl65o3w4adma7vbmovhyciy/app.bsky.graph.list/3krtw4uufwc2u", "historySeconds": 86400 }, { "type": "remove", "subject": "labels", "value": null, "id": "aaapxkh2aihps", "labels": [ "did:plc:bpkpvmwpd3nr2ry4btt55ack/ai-imagery" ] }, { "type": "sort", "sortType": "hn", "id": "aaaortezvepki", "gravity": "1.8", "sortDirection": "desc" } ], "license": "EUPL-1.2" }
You can now send direct messages (DMs) to people on Bluesky! Say hi to a friend, colleague, or a crush.
The spam reached Bluesky by first crossing over two other decentralized networks: Mastodon and Nostr.
Finally, a competitive YouTube alternative
To answer your question, it's inertia. People need to be forced of Twitter if before they join Mastodon/Bluesky/Threads
God I can't wait for that website to die already
Here is someone else's gift link but I don't know if it will work
Masterful gambit sir
I'm heavily interested in Bluesky, so I started [email protected]. However, Lemmy is overall pretty hostile towards Bluesky, and I'm not willing to go back to Reddit for active discussion about it.

Bluesky PBLLC officially announces Jack Dorsey's departure
We sincerely thank Jack for his help funding and initiating the bluesky project. Today, Bluesky is thriving as an open source social network running on atproto, the decentralized protocol we have built.
Good riddance.
Bridgy Fed (Bluesky x Mastodon bridge) quietly launches beta
Well, I didn’t plan it, but word got out anyway, and people discovered that the fed.brid.gy Bluesky/fediverse bridge quietly went online a bit ago. Over 1200 accounts have already turned it on so far and bridged themselves one direction or the other. It’s great to see so much early interest! https:/...
You can opt into it by following @ap.brid.gy from Bluesky or @[email protected] from Mastodon/Plemora/Threads/Lemmy.
Despite what this website will have you believe, it’s pretty decent. However, if you didn’t like pre-Musk Twitter, you probably won’t like Bluesky.
One Year of Bluesky by John Scalzi
A year ago today my pal Lou Anders asked me if I wanted an invite to a new microblogging site called Bluesky, which was making a little bit of a news splash because Jack Dorsey was on its board, an…
SkyBridge was among the recipients of a small distribution of $4,800 in grant funding from Bluesky, distributed across projects.
[DISCLAIMER: Because it keeps coming up somehow, neither myself nor this blog are affiliated with Bluesky PBLLC] In the beginning, online content moderation was created. This made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as proof that All Mods Are Bastards. On March 20th, 2024, Blue...

These days, everyone hates big tech, and that’s often for very good reasons. You shouldn’t trust giant centralized companies that have collected a ridiculous amount of data on you. There are few re…
