How this works

What does this app do?

It looks through your Bluesky feed for accounts that post an unusually high volume, shows you the list, and mutes the ones you pick. Muting on Bluesky is private — the other account is never told.

How does it know who posts a lot?

It doesn’t count posts itself. It reads labels published by Cornell Tech, a university research group that tracks public posting volume on Bluesky and publishes what it finds. This app looks up those labels and applies the rules you chose.

Does anything happen automatically?

No. A scan only reads; it never changes your account. You get a list, you tick the accounts you want muted, and only those are muted. Accounts you already follow are kept in a separate list so you don’t mute a friend by accident.

What if a scan can’t tell?

Some accounts show up as unresolved — a data source was down, or the labels were too old to trust. Unresolved never counts as “fine to mute”. Those accounts are left alone. Run a new scan later.

Can I undo a mute?

Yes. Run a scan again and the app will offer to unmute accounts that no longer match. Unmuting is always a separate list you approve on its own, so nothing gets unmuted behind your back.

How do I stop an account being touched at all?

Add it to Accounts to leave alone on your dashboard. It’ll be skipped by every scan from then on.

Sign out vs. disconnect

Sign out just ends this browser session; sign back in any time. Disconnect revokes the app’s access to your Bluesky account so it can’t make any more changes. Either way your policies, history, and existing mutes stay as they are. Disconnect lives under Connection and account data on your dashboard.

How do I delete everything?

Delete my atproto-acl data removes your policies, history, and stored credentials. It does not unmute anyone — if you want accounts unmuted, do that first.

Something’s wrong

Message @neutral.zone on Bluesky for ordinary support. Report security problems through GitHub private vulnerability reporting. If that route is unavailable, message @neutral.zone to arrange another private channel; never send credentials, tokens, or exploit details in a Bluesky message.
