You have a lot of options for whether you want to participate in the BS bridge -- either by managing your follows directly, by blocking users from that domain, or by blocking the whole domain.

@evan @ben One consideration is that maybe if the Bluesky bridge were opt-in, some servers currently moving to block it would instead leave it be, and that would make it more available / useful to their users.
