Safety is core to social media. Transparency is essential to building trust in moderation efforts, and the data we are providing here is a first step towards full transparency reports. We hope this provides some visibility, and we intend to deliver more granular data and reporting in the future.

I disagree with this somewhat. I agree that moderating for illegal content is necessary. However, I came here looking for a platform, not a publisher. Content moderation is not free speech.

I really wish that BlueSky didn't promote users with some of the most inflammatory rhetoric via the 'Discover' feed, which is still showing our feed, even if we removed the list. I don't understand why toxic political dialogue has to be part of that feed. It's awful. That's not helping the situation

Not remotely good enough. Moderation on threats and repeated harassment is dangerously lax. Not safe enough for a lot of users. Mute terms are needed asap. 3rd party tools have had that feature for a while now. Mute terms help reduce conflict between users and increase time spent.

I hope these moderators will protect people from harassment and not just "moderate" discussion. There are many people who are still hesitant to use social media because of privacy issues. I hope the work scope of moderators will be to look out for dangerous people and there is a reporting system.

You need to offer I.P. blocks to stop harassment. Someone can be blocked, and they simply delete their account, open a new account and start harassing all over again. You have a lot of work to do.
