* Blocks nuke the entire interaction chain, if one party blocks the other, NO ONE can (easily) see who said what. Kills drama in its tracks. Block early, block often. * Blocklists can be seen publicly via a tool, though, so be aware! * Feeds are very powerful! Explore them!

Mutelists are controversial, understandably as they can be abused to target people of color, BUT I've also found them incredibly helpful in making a better experience. Speaking of people of color, fair warning that this app still has a LOT of racism issues. There's not much moderation here...

If you liked Tweetdeck before they ruined it Bluesky has its own version called BlueDeck @deck.blue. Gives you that old Tweetdeck experience we all loved
