Oh, I can post anywhere. I'm in my 50's, and I know that alt clients can get around it, but that doesn't change the fact that the service itself chose to "Papers Please" RLID its users when there wasn't even political pressure to do it at the time in most of the places it operates. If it had changed to be trans and islamiaphobes then I am glad to be off there.
It hasn't. Or the block lists I'm using are fucking amazing.
From what I gather, the admins could be stepping in more like they do on Lemmy for hateful behaviors/users. If BlueSky were more federated like Lemmy, I think they would have been defederated by now for not taking direct action.
The block lists themselves work great imo and should be used universally on the Fediverse, but people do have understandable gripes with admins there for not stepping in more and are instead differing moderation to the user level tools in place.
