How to block Bluesky from Mastodon:
-
@FediTips Does blocking the domain still work if someone you follow boosts a toot from it?
It should hide any posts from that domain, even if they're boosted.

@FediTips
So number 4 - blocking the bot - is the important one?Asking because Moshidon doesn't show a domain option.
If the option isn't in your app, log in with your server's website and do the blocking there.
-
Does it say "mute domain"? If so it may be the same option with a different name.
Blocking domains is not quite as powerful as a block but more powerful than a mute, so there is some disagreement over which word to use.

@FediTips@social.growyourown.services @federatedsocialnews@channel.org Or you can just not bridge your account in the first place. ​
There were people asking how to block it who had bridged it a long time ago and didn't know how to stop it.

@FediTips Successfully blocked. My next question is, how do I completely block Threads as well?
As far as I can tell, your server has already defederated Threads, so you don't need to do anything else!
-
@FediTips There isn't any bridging to bluesky unless you actually follow the bridge account. Blocking to avoid bridging is totally useless.
I had several people ask me how to stop bridging, because they had bridged a while ago and didn't know how to stop it.
Also people asked me how to stop seeing bridged posts.
So, I've posted instructions on how to do both these things.
