Could you do listRecord on login, and use constellation to fetch recent follow records from the firehose, essentially to solve for follow updates from AppViews off of Red Dwarf?

This single handedly convinced me to go into the settings and turn it off.

Remember that if your account has data that you don't want to lose, only way to guarantee safety is hosting it yourself and performing regular backups! Wishing you the best :) fin/?

Mostly writing this after logging into a popular dev ATPro service, happily looked into the dev's account and saw a blogpost threatening to abuse the trust of their users and perform malicious permanent deletion of records if people didn't stop using it in a way they didn't like. 3/?

If you're worried about a service you've logged into, you can visit {your pds uri}/account to view a list of services that you have logged into with OAuth and you can revoke OAuth access tokens to any service. 2/?

ATPro PDS OAuth access page with the following text: Bluesky Manage your profile, posts, likes and follows as well as read your private preferences Repository Create, update, and delete any public record Authenticate Perform authenticated actions towards any service on your behalf By clicking Authorize, you will grant this application access to your account in accordance with its terms of service and privacy policy. Deny access Authorize

This should go without saying, but if you're using your Bluesky/ATPro PDS account to use other ATPro services, always be careful with permissions. Unlike some systems, many ATPro tools require perms that can allow malicious actors to delete every record(posts,likes,etc) on your account. 1/?

Once Blacksky gets their API and Relay up and running, they'll be the closest to being the "accessible but decentralized" solution to Bluesky. I'd recommend it :)

kids choice awards 2016 promo image of mario, luigi and paper mario's DMs. Luigi: What do you guys think about getting slimed? Mario: Mama mia! I've always wanted to get slimed! Paper Mario: ✔️ Mario: Sometimes I wish there was slime in the question mark blocks. Luigi: Really? Paper Mario: 😃 Mario: How AWESOME would that be!

screencap of Sonic's instagram DMs with Luigi. Luigi: Hey Sonic been a while. Need to warn you about my bro. He heard youre doing Olympics without us and hes even madder at you. Sonic: man hes always like this. hes so cool but WE always need to go to HIS place. same reason i didnt invite him to go karting!!! he would have said no anyway Luigi: I agree man, Im sorry. Hes really mad at Mega Man Pac-Man and Joker too not just you. The thing he's really mad about is that you guys got Slime in your item boxes though. Sonic: what???? Luigi: Yeah we went to the Kids Choice Awards once a few years ago and he wouldnt stop talking about the Slime. Next time you see him dont mention Slime at all. Im serious

Using either an AppView that doesn't interact with Bluesky's moderation services or APIs, or a service that skips the AppView, like Red Dwarf. You can visit Link here:
reddwarf.whey.party/profile/did:...

If you try to log into a PDS-banned account via an AppView, it results in a "You are suspended"-esque screen, so basically inaccessible from an AppView. I'm not sure that you can't migrate away from that PDS, though.

Late response here but PDS's have separate moderation tools, so it's possible that an org that hosts both the PDS and AppView could go and ban you on both ends, but it would be a manual process.

Łink’s account is actually still available on the Blacksky PDS, and has added a new post record earlier today. You just can't see it because the people who made the AppView you're using to read this rely on Bluesky's moderation labeler and built their platform ontop of it.

This is because popular AppViews and ATproto projects likely still force you to use Bluesky's moderation labeler, with no option to unsubscribe like other labelers.

You are atproto's 'brand ambassadors', to use something of a greasy phrase, and right now you're telling large numbers of people: atproto isn't for you; it's made by and for people who view you with contempt. What you're going to drive users towards is not alternate decentralized app views, relays, or labelers. You're driving them towards Threads. You're driving them to go back to the fediverse, if they can deal with that. You're driving them to quit social media entirely and retreat into more private forms of online communication.

Good article with really good advice on the future of Bluesky and the AT Protocol, who wrote something similar to what I skeeted earlier this week.

A screenshot of my account migrated from being hosted on bsky.social to being self-hosted on my new pds, pds.minito.dev.

Officially moved over to my own PDS :)

In nicer news, I hit 1 million points on @puzzmo.com :)

This was the perfect opportunity to tell bad actors to go and build their own Bluesky if they want to spread bigotry, but instead they put the onus on its own users. At least make an official blogpost stabbing your users in the back instead of vagueposting about the human condition or whatever.

Who's gonna tell Bluesky that people who leave aren't gonna go use a different version on the AT Protocol that they are also building, they're just gonna go to Threads or some shit and chalk Bluesky up as "yet another Twitter". Attempting to go centrist is going to doom Bluesky AND the AT Protocol

If you’re concerned about the recent issues with the bsky team, now’s a great time to read about migrating your data and protecting it from their moderation. Moving your data away from Bluesky is how you hold them, as a company, accountable.

I don’t think this is right, Matt Mullenweg is still active on tumblr and is still the CEO of Automattic, which still owns Tumblr.
