If former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte had a #WarOnDrugs campaign, Bluesky Feed Engineers are in an increasingly bloody #WarOnSpam.

As a Feed creator, it is a PITA to deal with these earthquake alert accounts. Majority of them are posting quakes less than M5.0, it becomes a spam. The alerts are appreciated but too much of it is spam. Most especially after a major quake there are hundreds of aftershocks < M5.0. Imagine the spam.

If you've subscribed to one or more of my Bluesky Feeds and you've noticed the emojis are gone, I did so because it is bad for #accessibility tools like assistive readers. Emojis rarely provide any meaningful info in the way they were used in my custom feeds. #a11y
First time since it went into service. This is a sign that things will only get worse soon. Look at LRT-1, it's permanently maxed train cars today. RE:

People! Please stop spreading fake news about a Philippine lockdown! It's just the annual flu season! Is this your first time in the #Philippines? It's already hard to deal with senior citizens who easily believe everything they read/hear in SNS. The government already debunked it multiple times!
They are quiet because they know "netizens" (or "keyboard warriors" as often called outside of Korea) won't do anything other than post online. If these "netizens" are really serious about their complaints, they need to take action, not just words behind pseudonyms. That's how it works. RE:

This was so true during the lockdown here in the Philippines. Every city/municipality launched their own app for VaxxID. If you don't have a smartphone (which many Filipinos still do), you can't get inside any establishment. Of course the National Government also launched their own but no one used. RE:

Crazy. I think this can be simplified? Unless of course they're using GoLang's RegExp engine which is very lacking in basic Unicode support (which is a sin). RE:
