Would the fediverse be able to handle something like this differently?
It just depends on the instance you’re on. The tankie instances, it’s gone.
that’s kinda understandable tbh
We can’t post videos, but he can spew hatred and lies? And his videos of Trump Gaza? Makes sense.
The non consensual part would be my poor eyes seeing it but I’m not on Bluesky because it’s a corporate imitation of federation
Is it? I thought it was just an imitation of Twitter. In what way does it even pretend to be federated?
How else would you pretend to be federated besides saying you’re federated when you aren’t?
Where did they say that? I’m not claiming they didn’t, I just haven’t heard about it.
I’m a little dumb as to these things, what does federated mean ?
So, non-federated means one company/organization has full control over some product/service/website (like Twitter, Reddit, etc).
Federated means that individuals can independently run instances of some product/service/website, and all those instances can talk to one another and share/sync data (Mastodon, Lemmy, etc).
Well, someone link it already!
Per the original article:
Update: After this article was published, Bluesky restored Kabas’ post and told 404 Media the following: “This was a case of our moderators applying the policy for non-consensual AI content strictly. After re-evaluating the newsworthy context, the moderation team is reinstating those posts.”
404media is great as always. Interesting comments about the legality of this.
Wait, you mean to tell me this meme didn’t have the full context included? Am I to believe that I shouldn’t take memes seriously and get into fights on the internet with strangers?!
Newsworthy context?
It was playing on all the screens in a govt. building for 5 minutes. The staff didn’t know how to stop it so someone was running around manually unplugging screens. I’d say that’s pretty newsworthy
In essence i agree but in context of the strategy of flooding the media i cant help but feel like for every something like this, which is funny and In some way hopeful but not a ongoing major issue we are missing something else.
It was playing on a ton of government TVs and no one knew how to turn it off. That leads to some articles.
more articles of impeachment for XLVII then? Methinks he’s already attained some kind of record with Guinness, no?
Don’t hurt the poor fascists’ feewings, y’all!
Womp womp, that didnt take long. Only downhill for Bluesky from here on.
Relax they put it back up
What does that change? Its about the system and their ability to do so from a central control point. Bluesky was doomed before it started with how it is set up and governed.
Exactly. At least with Mastodon and all Fediverse platforms you don’t have some overlord who can just remove anything on a whim.
Bluesky was never the solution to the Twitter problem.
Yes you do? If the moderator or admin of your instance doesn’t like something, it’s gone.
Sure you could post to another instance, but the line of posting to another instance or posting to another service is a thin one.
I fully agree that Bluesky is far from the distributed haven it might claim to be, but just because it makes a decision that any Fediverse instance might have made doesn’t mean it’s over.
Bluesky has problems, but those problems are still within the realm of fixable. Fediverse alternatives may be better, but Bluesky is still fine.
I hope you are joking, you are saying this as if one person runs the entire company lmao

The fact it was taken down tells you everything you need to know about BS.
All it means is that one moderator made a dumb decision. But I’m sure that’s never been a problem on the fediverse.
Dunno why blow it out of proportion, either a moderator with bias or mass reports from fans of their daddy being made fun of, which in return triggered an automatic removal of the post.
To think people are joining Bluesky like it’s totally different to Xitter…
The sooner the enshittification happens the more likely they are to learn
How do we really know it was nonconsensual though?
I guess this normalizes foot fetishes. They’re gonna be fucked when people start sexually fetishizing people who are fully clothed in photographs
Start?
Yeah, I live in Utah and that shit has been going for years here. Thirsty people gonna thirst.
What
Huh? I can still see it.
Edit: oh I see. One of the posts that included the video was deleted for nonconsensual explicit content and then restored after users protested.
