Bsky has block lists and subscriptions to different moderation services labelers (that anyone can run) and you can pick and choose.

This is honestly an amazing feature. I hope someone can implement it in fediverse.

It’s an accessibility issue too. I have a friend who is both hard of hearing and has visual problems, they can make out zoomed in plaintext but the captchas are just too much for them.

Semafor is a news site just like Axios is, it does shorten things down though and has lots of newsletters.

Vienna has 50% public housing and as a result basically no homeless population.

It nearly 100% is.

They link to loads of russian propaganda websites.

Not really. There isn’t a systemic problem where the lives of black people are valued more than others. The systemic problem is that black people’s lives are valued less than others.

There is a systemic problem where the lives of people unable to work through no fault of their own are valued less than those who can work.
