should treehouse defederate the bluesky bridge?

@mjdxp yes. there are several people who I follow who boost bluesky political content and I am tired of reading neoliberal shitposting

@ariadne @mjdxp it would disrupt several of my connections which would be unpleasanthave you considered unfollowing people who immerse themselves in neoliberal shitposting instead

@ariadne @mjdxp I'm not a treehouse user and didn't vote in the poll. But given the particular shape of that issue, might only muting the instance from your personal account be more appropriate?One problem with defederating is some treehouse members might want to federate *into* bluesky. And having bridge support complete complete is nice because it allows things like threads, QRTs, RTs to pass bidi over the bridge.Trying not to express a specific opinion here.

@ariadne One possible line is whether the bridge does sufficient moderation to make up for Bluesky's moderation failures. If Bluesky hosts content you would suspend a fedi server for, and you can't get the bridge to block it either, then it's essentially an inadequately moderated fedi server.The only reason not to suspend in that case is if Bluesky is "too big to fail", but many fedi servers have suspended Threads (which looks bigger in theory).I'm not voting b/c I'm not on your server.

@ariadne I’m disappointed by the number of “no”s.

@mjdxp @whitequark I have. I was just curious about how people felt about the bridge.

@whitequark @valpackett @dalias to be clear this is not "defed by poll", but simply asking whether people find the bridge useful. now I have an answer.

@whitequark @valpackett @dalias (the reason for phrasing the question like that was to encourage comment, as people who are using it would be motivated to say "hey, I'm using this" if they were using it)

@skyfaller threads uses an allowlist and treehouse isn't on it, so it's largely a moot issue

conclusion: we keep the bridge as people are actively using it.

sometimes I ask questions in this format to encourage people to actually comment 😂

@ariadne I'm on treehouse specifically because I don't want to have an adversarial relationship with my social media host (either directly or by proxy), so the provocative phrasing really didn't helpto be clear, this went like 5% of the way on a scale where 100% is "holy shit, I have to switch servers immediately" but that's still a bump in blood pressure that is entirely optional

@whitequark fair enough, we can ask questions more softly, but the onus is on you to still respond 🙂

@ariadne I voted in the poll even before the second post went up! (at least on my screen)

@whitequark ah the poll was not for collecting data, it was for driving engagement 😂the real goal was comment solicitation

@ariadne that's a baffling 5D chess move i don't think i understand the motivation foranyway, my point is that if the poll was a non-poll post with a question mark i'd respond to it too

@kouhai @whitequark to be clear, defed by personal preference is not something we actually do here.

@whitequark the motivation is that when I solicit comments on possible instance changes, people frequently go "meh" and then do not actually provide the solicited feedback

@ariadne @kouhai that is clear to me now. but i usually take people at their word because historically, the consequences of not doing that were too great

@ariadne policymaking by trolling seems suboptimal in its own right

@whitequark yes it is a problem, but what happens if one is not provacative is that we get no feedback
