bsky.app/profile/pyro... for further details on the server-side link blocking they have as well.

Okay I did a check and bluesky now has a "safelink" service that it also checks URLs against when saving them as profile links. It currently doesn't seem to block anything(I checked a LOT of random urls, including shorteners, adult content sites, etc), at least atm, but this is a server-side method

Further note: None of this prohibits you from manually adding them via editing your profile directly via a site like pdsls, but this isn't a good solution for non-technical users. Bluesky should not be adding these restrictions, except for stuff like malware and scams. Adult creators should be fine!

I tried this and it got labeled porn and is hidden in the app, which raises the question of why they’re not allowing them to be input in the first place

(as in, they should be treated like everyone else, not that they are being treated well rn)
