Can you opt out of your posts appearing on “Discovery” for people who don’t follow you?

I have no idea why it seems like your account specifically is getting hit. Most reply andies I’ve seen on any account here.

Def sucks tho, unduck / t3 chat are sick tools

Happens whenever you hit the discovery feed 🙃 bsky.app/profile/t3.g...

I think @techconnectify.bsky.social explained this problem really well. I genuinely hate “going viral” here 🙃

Seriously this place is fucking insufferable

By this you mean internet right?

@catalyze.bsky.social

Yeesh that is one bitter mf, though to be fair I've seen plenty of those on twitter too. I'd love for this place to be better.

This one 😭😭

@quick007.bsky.social

Genuinely sad that's the take people have... I don't think they get that they're the problem

@chrispycode.bsky.social

Sad to see it seemed pretty chill here till now

@ocrm.bsky.social

i love bluesky but some of the people on here are REALLY annoying and bitter for no reason at all

ah yes, theo famously "Tech CEO" of like 10 people

also iirc you can limit replies to only followers, thatll probably help stop at least dumb replies

I disagree with the attitude of that reply guy, but the sentiment on here might be less receptive since it seems like BlueSky is an afterthought for many tech influencers and doesn’t receive the same level of communal contribution as on X.

@brianprost.com

I say this as a fan who would love to see the T3 community move away from platforms that financially benefit Elon. Real fans of yours know that you’re much more than a tech influencer, but your engagement on here is not as representative of that reality compared to your activity on X.

I figured sharing my open source work was a good way to start engaging on here more 🙃

you can disable replies from people who don't follow you

I do wonder if this setting has any effect on what gets put on discover as I only see those kinda posts from people I'm already following

@n8ball.bsky.social

For what its worth (and not to dogpile the project issues) there is discussion about this feature in the at proto project. github.com/bluesky-soci...
