Can you please make it so that users you are blocking cannot add you to lists? This has been used to harass.

Wouldn't that break all block lists pretty much? Like, all the person has to do is block the list creator, and they're out.

Literally that's what twitter (I'm sorry, X) does & tbh I hate lists as a feature in general but being able to get off them by blocking the swines who add me to "sick degenerate who should unalive themselves" is two birds one stone.

That's how it always was on Twitter, block someone and it deletes you from their lists. It was good.

honestly i don’t see that as a bad thing. theres no way when something like a block list exists that every single one is perfect and has good intentions. i think the positives of being able to remove yourself from lists by blocking op far outweighs the negatives

that's fine, they then fulfill the purpose of the list: the creator no longer sees them at all. if it could be done in such a way that unblocking puts them back on the list it'd cut off a runaround. as is, the lists are harassment tools – there are already racist and transphobic ones floating around

This. I don't want this place to be a repeat of Twitter where the LGBTQ+ community are regularly put on lists of "peados and their defenders" etc. and nothing can be done about it.

It will be, because the people in charge not only believe that there's a way to court all sides in everything, they also think that there's a tech solution to a human problem.

this would in effect allow anyone to opt-out of moderation lists, breaking their entire purpose. in the future i imagine composable moderation would be able to label user lists and hide them if they're malicious, and until then you can report them to bluesky if they break the rules.

In any case you can't modify another user's list because you don't have write access to their account nor does Bluesky without having that other user to log in. That's why when you block someone that's following you, it doesn't cancel their follow.

this is the worst idea tbh

I wonder if that's possible? I hear you though.

You tracking this repo? github.com/qwell/bsky-e...

GitHub - qwell/bsky-exploits: Bluesky / AT Protocol vulnerability disclosures and exploit frameworkgithub.com Bluesky / AT Protocol vulnerability disclosures and exploit framework - GitHub - qwell/bsky-exploits: Bluesky / AT Protocol vulnerability disclosures and exploit framework

yep and we addressed it a while ago i wouldn't call it an exploit, it's just the way that rich text works on bluesky for example, you can add hyperlinks. but if the url doesn't match the text in the post, we show a warning with the url that you're trying to navigate to before we take you there

Are there any plans to add direct messages? If I want to give someone a way to contact me, I have to announce it to the whole world. It's very bad for privacy.

Pleeeeease let us block people directly from the offending post. Shouldn't have to visit their profile and possibly see even more bad stuff, thanks.

One thing I’d like to see fixed is for threads to present as threads, not nested replies, e.g. ⬇️

What platform is that?

How should this be handled? Should it be that every successive post from the same author is a thread, but a post from anyone else counts as a reply?

That repo is a bad attention grab. All of this is possible on other platforms. Rich text is not an "exploit" let alone a vulnerability, its a UX problem if handled badly but its handled with the usual warning pop ups.

Attention grab? Oh you mean he's engaging in an attention grab. I was just bringing it to your attention because it seems dodgy. I'm not a security expert.
