I asked for image generation AI models. A random person came in telling me that I should hire an artist, I just replied it’s just to prototype and I’m not hiring any artist just to prototype and I got blocked? 😅 guess people have a very thin skin

So people can make public lists of others and mark them as something they’re not and ruin them and cause a bad reputation just because someone is just being a prick and does not like that I just wanna use AI to prototype instead of spending thousands of dollars on someone that might even be worst?

You're not really ruining their reputation or anything. Those are personal lists people have to actively subscribe. In the end it comes down to trust & the ability to hide what you don't want to see. If this person who created the list thinks you're posting AI Slop and they don't want to see it...

...they add you to this list and block you. Then when other people trust this person and say "Hey, I also don't want to see AI Slop" they can subscribe to their list and just ... don't see AI slop anymore. It's their active decision, it's just that they're not actively "blocking" you.

On top, this is also easily reversable - if you realize someone ends up on a list who did nothing wrong or actually doesn't post something they are accused of, you can simply unsubscribe a list und auto unblock all the people.

And I'm sure Im also on a few blocklists. :D In the end you have to think like this: This list is probably subscribed by maximum 3 people? Maybe 10? It's not like you're now auto hidden from Bluesky for everyone.
