I would prefer that ALL lists and the entire list system be abandoned and replaced with proper self moderation tools (like the ability to remove followers you don't want following you)... but this is a good first step

I'm experiencing targeted harassment by someone I've never interacted with. I was put on a "Spammer" list and I've never solicited and I was put on a "Supports Sex Pest" list because I asked for an investigation for allegations of a public figure that I'm not involved with. It was an opinion.

It may be time to reconsider the whole list system. Too many users are following the 'add to an abusive list then block' pattern.

Many really great accounts have been banned for no good reason. Mine was one of them for a few days. It needs to stop.

Blocking on Bluesky is supposed to prevent people from 'mentioning you, or otherwise interacting with you'. Malicious users of lists are doing just that. This is a total FAIL for Bluesky, and has turned a very decent place into a thoroughly flawed place. Set it right Bluesky!!!

I’ve checked from time to time and find that I’ve made it onto block list for nothing more than existing.

People are creating block lists maliciously. It should not be allowed.

I am sure I am being blocked. When I first signed up I was gathering lots of followers than all of a sudden it stopped and like no one? I haven't changed

Too many bad actors have weaponized and abused moderation lists. Often the creators make themselves judge and jury and add you to inappropriate or malicious lists.

I don’t believe in block lists
But I do believe in occasionally blocking someone either because it’s porn and I have no interest or they are clearly MAGA TRYING TO pick a fight for the sake of divisiveness

This is good to try to get looked into for improvement and change. A large problem is also a moderation setup that is easily abused by, for example, crybullies who act abusive toward others and have groups of followers who can mass report someone, and moderation is unresponsive and unhelpful.

These lists hurt the entire BlueSky community. It is a form of silencing us.

I have been placed on multiple block lists and I just post progressive thoughts!

The lists are ridiculous – we should at LEAST be able to be removed from a list when we block the creator.

SkywatchBlue puts me on moderation lists and I am tired of it. At least on Twitter you could block and get off the list
