with everyone talking about stopkillinggames my mind constantly goes back to the postal dude asking to sign his petition

idk I'd down a couple of these

man look I get it, spotify bad or whatever -- i, too, have shelves full of records and more band t-shirts than normal pieces of clothing -- but wrapped owns and until everyone gets a last.fm account and it's 2010 again i'm not going to complain about people sharing things they're into

maybe a hot take, but society pushing people into getting degrees is bad actually

Over-saturation of degrees has made them practically worthless, and if my experience taught me anything, I barely learnt anything from university and I still got the highest possible grade.

I'm getting a lot of AI-generated reply spam in my mentions, if you read replies to my posts, you probably want to subscribe to this mute list: bsky.app/profile/retr...

Bluesky moderation settings titled "Content filters", there's a toggle named "Enable adult content" as well as options to Show, Warn or Hide "Adult Content: Explicit sexual images", "Sexually Suggestive: Does not include nudity.", "Graphic Media: Explicit or potentially disturbing media.", and "Non-sexual Nudity: E.g. artistic nudes."

Newsky pro tip: certain content can be chosen to be hidden (or shown if that's more your thing) if you're an adult and find it shows up too much / not enough on your feeds

Up-to-date BlueSky Crop Aspect Ratio Crop Sizes for Bluesky as of 18 Oct 2024 By default, single images are uncropped. If image is too tall (Exceeds the 1:2 aspect ratio) then it will be cropped. Single images that are too tall may be scaled down but aspect ratio is preserved With two images, both of them share a square aspect ratio of 1:1 For three images, the first image is square (1:1) while the other two are half-squares (2:1) And for 4 images, all of them are 3:2

I came across an outdated guide on image grid sizing crop/proportions for bsky earlier, and I felt it was important to create an updated version! Please use this new guide instead!

A number of artists and creators have made their home on Bluesky, and we hear their concerns with other platforms training on their data. We do not use any of your content to train generative AI, and have no intention of doing so.

This has the potential to make bsky so much nicer for artists and help eliminate customers from being scammed by fake artists

ayyyyyyy

The app definitely needs some work, though liking on it is for some reason a 50/50 roulette that it works or not and it takes a long time to register (on the website it works tho?), also kind of buggy at times, otherwise i like it

Alright, looks like I'm staying here for the long run, seems pretty convincing with the amount of interactions a lot of posts get and the ongoing constant migration from That Platform to here.
