Hey #SpeirGorm folks, know anyone in the Irish govt who could use friendly outreach to get on Bluesky? This is talking about setting up handles, verification, tech support etc… so just if any of those might be blockers on orgs or people moving over.

Current events are making it challenging to track MPs and reputable organisations that are permanently migrating to Bluesky. If folks see examples that we need to assess for verification - do let me know. Will limit it largely to politicians, govt orgs and large orgs at the moment for this pass.
Hopefully I've done this correctly in terms of the leaflet setup this time. Here's a first post in a series on T&S on Bluesky.

One happy realization over the past day of wins is that this site can be a place where political magic happens.
This comes as a shock to folks on other sites who say we are in a filter bubble.
Makes it all the more important that non-billionare controlled spaces exist. Media diversity matters.
We just crossed it. Yay! Congrats everyone and Happy Halloween!

Had a great convo with John about my background, the trade offs required during our rapid growth phase, and scaling T&S with limited resources.

Not at all what was envisioned when labels were launched on Bluesky but the design choice to give users a bit more freedom to experiment results in interesting outcomes like this Taylor Swift Eras labeller [bsky.app/profile/eras...](

It's been a hectic week for Bluesky Trust & Safety. With the Brazilian wave, reports have skyrocketed, bad actors targeted the site, systems needed adaptation, and new harms emerged. 1/7
Addressed a significant surge in art commission scam accounts this evening, and will do further cleanup + add more detections around this behaviour moving forward.
