Well I was considering creating a Bluesky account, but now I definitely won't. I don't want my comments getting purged just because I argued with the author of a post.

This isn't "Anti-Toxicity" in as much it as "affirmation bubble creating". Your followers become your yes men and anyone arguing with you gets their comments purged from anyone seeing them.



Do you use Twitter (X)? Because you can hide specific replies to your post there, too.


Your comments don’t get purged, they just require an extra “show hidden comments” click to be viewed.
