“To address this, we’re leaning into labeling services and hoping to integrate a Community Notes-like feature in the future,” the company said in the blog. Additional changes include a new priority filter that lets users only receive notification updates from people they follow, as well as the ability to limit being featured in lists. There’s a good selection of tools here to nope out of mobbing on the platform, but Bluesky says it isn’t done yet — additional changes are being made “to combat ban evasion, botnets, and other forms of toxicity.” The company is planning to share more details about those efforts next week.
