What are your thoughts on X's change to the block behavior?

(Blocked users will see your posts, they won't be able to engage with them).

I think it makes public X profiles sort of like blogs with open comments, with the option to ban users from commenting. You can't selectively block people from reading a public blog so you won't be able to selectively block people from reading a public X profile.

The open web is dead, long live the open web. ⌐◨-◨

going to drive a lot of signups on bluesky 

personal whim of rocket man that safety experts have repeatedly told him will cause harm

You could always work around this with an incognito window, so never made much sense as a feature to me.

The uproar over on Xitter about the changes to the TOS will go nowhere. Everyone talks about migrating to Bluesky... Bluesky has NO path to profitability and 99% of their users don't make use of the federated features. Thus, another centralized, venture-capital funded social platform that will turn into what you hate.

Farcaster interests me because it solves the centralization problem and usability problem. It's venture-capital funded but *actually* has a clear path to profitability with crypto integrations into Warpcast.

This belongs in /social
