@djsundog I think the concept (both BlueSky's and Mastodon's equivalent efforts over the years) is a hell of a lot better than Twitter's "here, follow a bunch of brands and cryptofascist celebrities!", but consent is key.

@djsundog I'm not on BlueSky but I've seen a few people here who are very pissed that people can just add you to a starter park without your permission, making it very easy for people who suffer abuse to be found by abusive people.

It's a weird thing that my lab is developing superficially similar products, looking at property-scale bushfire risk across Hobart.

@NewtonMark I give him a week (give him a chance to sober up) before he goes full "I've been cancelled!" and gets a job with some right wing rag
