All the algorithms on bluesky are optional, there’s both official feeds and a lot of 3rd party feeds (and they don’t run on view counts!), so there’s no trivial way to game the algorithms to reach the userbase
Threads default settings are like an open fire hose of rage bait and negativity spraying directly into your face. It’s pretty wild without some manual feed pruning.
Nah it just means you need to contract with a temp sms number provider. It’ll be difficult for your average kid in a garage to run bulk bots but not for state, corporate, and other well funded actors.

Mastodon’s the best social media I’ve used. I’ve curated such a quality feed.
That’s what I was thinking… Here come the bots
You need to register with a phone number, and they send a verification SMS to the number which you must complete to finish registration
I think that’s difficult for bulk bots
