@blogdiva probably
Not me tho
@ErickaSimone i would never unfollow you 😘
welp,
did a search and just unfollowed one at a time.
FWIW my gut feeling been proven right about the bridge: that it would be mostly a one-way street benefitting people at the hipster nazi bar.
i followed about 50 people. only 5 followed back.
fuck nazi bars.
@blogdiva I followed two up until about two months ago when I couldn't stand it. Easy to unfollow, but blocking the references are more difficult. My filter mostly works, but some sneak through.
Now to block all the people wasting my time with "but, reach".
@blogdiva Yeah, I gave it the benefit of the doubt, but it’s really not worth the implied legitimization of Bluesky.
@blogdiva I’m turning off federation both ways on brid.gy.
@Laukidh @blogdiva Ya I summarized the steps here: https://sfba.social/@drahardja/115908542368696091
@blogdiva
Oh dear. What did Jay do this time?
@mayintoronto @ohmu @blogdiva
They probably paid eight bucks for it.
@blogdiva No, if you view Mastodon from the web, just click a post's three dots and block the domain
@blogdiva domain block on the web app should do the trick.
@blogdiva I wondered, too. Tho, generally, i have very few folks there I follow, so it should be easy in my case, once I know what to do.
@blogdiva have you thought about moving instances first?
