Bsky Reviews 59

Mostly good. However, there are people who seem to want to abuse it. So far it's endless "block, block, block" but that's becoming less now. It has potential. Just needs to mature more. Keep up the good work.

Has potential

I created an account and used it for a few months. However, for some reason the app needed to reload on my phone and when reloaded my details were missing. I added these but could not remember my password. Such a difficult process to gain entry with a forgotten password that I still have no access and have no intention of reusing.

They make the process of what to do if you have forgotten your password so complicated and a stressful experiance

It is impossible to delete the account. An error message appears every time despite the correct procedure being followed. Therefore, Bsky retain all your personal data as the only option is to (partially) deactivate your account. Tricksters

BlueSky - rotten nest of radical leftists, an echo chamber where freedom of speech dies as soon as you disagree with their twisted narrative. Think of that place as a mini North Korea filled with marxist propagandists.

I was a member for several months. I didn't log in for several weeks, and then when I did I found I was banned. No notification, no explanation, no warning. The site is coded so poorly that the box that pops up with the option to click it to appeal appears and vanishes within a second so that it can't be accessed. I was told to send an email to moderation. The email was ignored.

So I have no clue what I did, if anything, to earn the ban and they deliberately set up their site to make finding out or appealing impossible(both the website on a desktop AND the app do this so I must assume it's by design).

Considering all I did on there is mock right wingers, bsky probably has such types running the place now. I can't imagine why else making fun of right wing politicians and various fascists would earn a ban. The fact that they hide the cause of the ban proves they're hiding something.

I’ve never encountered such poor customer service. My account (@ronokst.bsky.social) was taken down for allegedly being spammy or fake, yet I’ve done absolutely nothing that even remotely violates their community guidelines. I’ve only been using the platform for a month, mostly browsing and interacting with messages. No spamming, no harmful activity, just casual use.

Bluesky claims to have reviewed my account, but they offer no proof or explanation as to why they made this decision. It’s frustrating to deal with a company that takes down accounts based on what seems like a flawed audit with no transparency.

I reached out to their moderation team and still haven’t received any clear answers. It’s unacceptable that they can make such a major decision without providing any real evidence. If they can’t prove that I did something wrong, they should reinstate my account immediately.

I will never trust this platform again, and I strongly advise anyone thinking about joining to be cautious. Avoid Bluesky if you don’t want to deal with a company that lacks accountability and proper customer support.

Account deleted for suspicious/spam behaviour after signing up and making 1 post.

Sign up process was irritating, took far too long no options to create account with Google or Apple. The whole thing just slow and time consuming, having to restart the whole process multiple times, having to keep doing the same catchpa again and again, verification taking ages to arrive etc..

We made an account for our gym, followed some of the top fitness channels like a handful and then set about building our page.

We set up the art and bio and then moved to our first post. Our first post was some encouraging words and a link to a series we had just commissioned and released on YouTube.

Informed today our account has been deleted for suspicious/spam behaviour.

This platform is a disgrace! This platform attacks legitimate business for no reason. I hope this company will be taken down and replaced with something more suitable.

The website itself has greatly stabilized since its infancy, browsing is smooth and bugs are quickly fixed.
I've seen people complain about the content, but all that tells me is that they're not using the provided tools correctly. Bluesky has AMAZING self-moderation tools that help people curate their experience down to the smallest detail (lists, feed, etc) so that they only see what (and who) they want to see. That's extremely important in any large-scale social media, where many conflicting personalities will share one space.
Plus, they are very welcoming of new apps and devs who want to use their network, and make it easier for them to do so (a rarity, in open source spaces).
All in all, great website, excited to see it grow!

Fantastic social network if you want an easy-to-use network that you can trust. No ads, good options to take control over your privacy, and no annoying spammy bots. It is a network that is easy to use and has high security standards at the same time.
I am fully satisfied with this network with nothing to criticise. Have a nice day.

If you are looking for mature and adult discourse in a social media platform, Bluesky is NOT for you.

It is everything that the left rails against, but that's ok because it's them doing it. Hypocrisy and censorship is the name of the game on Bluesky.

If you voice an opinion that diverges even a fraction of an iota from the groupthink that's rife on this website, you will be called every name in the book or banned from the site.

Well contructed, simple to negotiate and full of great people

Terrible website. You simply can't work with it. I spent an hour creating an account and then the system dropped. When I tried to go back on, with the password I had created, the system kept saying it did not recognize my password. I was able to post four times, my published books, and include a link, so I guess it's good promotion for me and my writing but it's such an inferior form of social media. With other websites, there is a way to identify yourself, and then change the password but not with Blue Sky. They basically suck. Total waste of time. LOL...

Terrible. Guy that ran the liberal twitter created bsky. where liberals get to talk about anything but account with opposing views are quickly suspended permanently. forget open discussion here. it doesn't exist. bsky demands accounts others be tolerant while being intolerant. hopefully this review stays up.

I really want to give more stars, but I can't. I'm unable to see other people's comments on posts, which defeates the object somewhat. Reached out about it, but heard nothing back. Disapointing

A better ui than x.

Woohoo! Give me more features and less not sees!

Elon Musk should be able to sue this website for blatant fraud, it's a copy of X/Twitter!

Another leftist echo chamber. Just look at the positive comments here; they can't praise bluesky without resorting to their George Orwellian ways of silencing or attacking any opinion that differs from their own. They have to villainize someone to legitimize themselves. Have a slightly different perspective on something? You must be a Nazi. That's leftist logic in communities like bsky. If you believe in censorship and close-minded echo chambers, bsky will be perfect for you.
