That's weird. The bluesky links in the article work fine for me, and I don't have a bluesky account.

Ahh hang on, this one doesn't work but all the rest do

Ahh here we go: it's a user made setting not a bluesky one

Why would a user choose to enable that? Would that make it less likely to be scraped by a bot?

Probably the same person who ends all of their comments on Lemmy with that stupid "anti-AI commercial license" or whatever bullshit.

bsky started with nine of its posts. wing shown publicly so when they flopped the switch (i think they also opened registration without invites) some people who had gotten used to their post being hidden from the rest of the net felt exposed and the devs added this settings.

while i do not think its a great setting i kinda get it. especially given that there are not (yet) private accounts so that’s the best they have
