Bluesky rolls out massive revamp to policies and Community Guidelines

techcrunch.com Sarah Perez 2025-11-20 21:49:58

Two years after launching, social network Bluesky is revising its Community Guidelines and other policies, and asking for feedback from its users on some of the changes. The startup, a competitor to X, Threads, and open networks like Mastodon, says its new policies are meant to offer improved clarity and more detail around its user safety procedures and the appeals process. Many of the changes are being driven by new global regulations, including the UK Online Safety Act (OSA), the EU Digital S

What is Bluesky? Everything to know about the X competitor

techcrunch.com Amanda Silberling 2025-11-20 21:56:59

Is the grass greener on the other side? We’re not sure, but the sky is most certainly bluer. It’s been over two years since Elon Musk purchased Twitter, now X, leading people to set up shop on alternative platforms. Mastodon, Post, Pebble (two of which have already shuttered operations) and Spill have been presented as potential replacements, but few aside from Meta’s Threads have achieved the speed of growth Bluesky has reached. As of February 2025, Bluesky has surpassed 30 million users. Its

Ransomware and infostealer threats are evolving faster than most organizations can adapt. While security teams have invested heavily in ransomware resilience, particularly through backup and recovery systems, Picus Security's Blue Report 2025 shows that today's most damaging attacks aren't always about encryption. Instead, both ransomware operators and infostealer campaigns often focus on credential theft, data exfiltration, and lateral movement, leveraging old-school stealth and persistence to

New iPhone 17 Air video reveals beautiful Sky Blue dummy model

Apple’s new iPhone 17 Air is expected to come in four colors, including Sky Blue. And based on a new dummy model video, Sky Blue looks like it could easily prove the most popular color. Sky Blue coming to iPhone 17 Air after proving a hit on M4 MacBook Air Earlier this year, the M4 MacBook Air debuted in Sky Blue, and the color became an instant hit. So it should perhaps be unsurprising that Apple’s going back to a proven winner with its forthcoming iPhone 17 Air. Today Majin Bu posted a new

"You don’t eat blue meat." A wild game trapper just south of San Francisco was in for a colorful surprise when he began processing some feral hogs he had caught earlier this year. According to local news outlet SFGate, a number of the hogs — technically crossbreeds between domestic pigs and wild boars — appear to have had their muscles and fatty tissue stained blue after munching on a rat poison known as diphacinone.

Which colors are primary?

news.ycombinator.com James Gurney 2025-11-26 09:06:45

Artists traditionally refer to red, yellow, and blue as primary colors. These three colors were once believed to be the essential set for mixing a broad palette in painting. Following this line of thinking, violet, green and orange become secondary colors because they’re mixed from the primaries. However, for more than a century, both scientific understanding and practical experience has shown that cyan, magenta, and yellow are more efficient for subtractive mixing with pigments, producing clea
