Sun in Bio - Belligerent Bots

Why was this List created?

With Bluesky becoming more popular, bad actors are trying to devalue the site with combative argumentation. They know that being combative in social media creates engagement, as discussed in this video, and it is related to how a big percentage of internet interactions is not human-based.

Additionally, some people have created coordinated efforts to flood users' replies with cookie-cutter style responses made by mass-created bot accounts. In order to sanitize your feed from their interactions, we have developed this list.

How is this List updated?

We look at the user posts and analyze if the user's posts check these boxes:

1. Has signs of ChatGPT-style stunted writing, or constant disagreement with other users;

2. Posts in cookie-cutter style templates, such as "I love your style!", "I love your honesty!" etc;

3. User posts, bios, banners etc. are shared among several accounts;

4. Search in internect.info reveals they were created recently (no older than 2025);

5. Search in skyzoo.blue reveals non-human activity hours (i.e. never sleeps);

6. Has a lot of replies, but no stand-alone posts.

If users trip up in these tests, then they will be added into this Moderation List.

What kind of users are added into this Moderation List?

Bot accounts that devalue the social media site by sowing discord. This is a special type of spam which baits on the human condition to thrive (inflammatory posts, easy access to fake pornographic content). Such users should be blocked immediately.

What should not be added into the Moderation List?

As this Moderation List is focused on automated bots, human users should not be included in this list.
