@oliphant when someone follows you, you get a chance to allow them to follow you, or not. You can set this to approve by default, or you can review each follow.

Evan Prodromou (evan@cosocial.ca)'s status on Wednesday, 14-Feb-2024 00:42:14 JST Evan Prodromou @skyfaller @oliphant that's not the topic under discussion. It's whether you get a chance to opt in to being followed through the bridge, which I think you do.

Nelson Chu Pavlosky (skyfaller@jawns.club)'s status on Wednesday, 14-Feb-2024 00:42:15 JST Nelson Chu Pavlosky @evan @oliphant If harassment-based accounts like Libs of Tiktok are allowed on a service, it doesn't matter if they follow you. If they can see your post and put it on their timeline for their harassment army to see, then they are a threat to your safety and well-being.
Actual moderation has to consider how to make this outcome more difficult and less likely, if not prevent it entirely. Removing bad actors from the service is necessary, but isn't Bluesky's vibe. And prevent them from seeing u!
