People have been saying bsky is even worse than Twitter in terms of user bullying. Sort of the opposite way though. Instead of rampant toxicity you get beaten down for anything that bothers anyone. And that basically means everything. So, I'm just staying away.
Thats not really what happens, unless you're so toxic that old-twitter would actually ban you.
Bsky has a "nuclear block", that essentially removes you and the target from even existing on the version of the site each other see. If you're ok with just talking to folk who are on your side of a "no, shutup" line, like "trans women are women" or "trans is a mental disorder" you'll be fine.
The issue is that a bunch of folk who abscribe to the second apparently just want to troll the first, so they get blocked by their targets, have no fun, and then complain to reporters still on twitter.
They apparently have a feature to label other users as anti science or whatever. Actual scientists have gotten that label, oops.
