> Bluesky has demonstrated a strong eagerness to censor content based on political ideology

Can you demonstrate where/when this has happened? I've been on Bluesky since 2023 and yet to see any concrete examples of people getting banned for saying anything like that.

I've seen plenty of examples of users getting a ton of pushback from others when saying something like that, and ending up on block lists that others can (optionally) subscribe to, but never seen anyone permanently banned over it.

Appreciated Daniel reaching out to the team about this! Hosting blobs is one of those things that will inevitably go through iterations as we understand the abuse vectors more and more, but for now it's really fun to see this kind of usage in action. The PDS is meant to be a database host in the same sense that a webserver is a website host.

You're walking headfirst into the copyright, CSAM, pornography hole of content moderation here.

How is this any different than the regular hole of content moderation they're already in?

I would be very curious how exactly this is being said and if it is just simply stating an "opinion" or if it is being used as a way to attack people and purposefully start a fight.

If it is the later 2, than them being "eager" is a good thing since that just feeds to toxicity and is a major reason that people have been pushing to move away from Twitter in the first place.

Even the first one I can understand since I really struggle to figure out why you would feel the need to repeat this if it was not an attempt to stir up an argument.

Regardless of the reason, you should always be reluctant to store anything important on a platform you don't own. Focusing on this particular topic as the reason however is really just trying to start an argument that does not need to happen.

Obvious trolling attempt aside, on the topic of uploading files to third party platforms, people should have really learned their lesson when uploading files to Discord and using that as a CDN and Discord completely killing that and hundreds of thousands of links by adding timeouts to the files hosted on their servers. It's really annoying because there are a bunch of mod servers that refuse to put their files anywhere else and so many links were completely lost to the ether. Now you need to join so many servers just to get files and it gets very annoying very fast. Please just use a file hosting solution or make a website.
