My favorite thing on Bluesky is a labeler made by the Social Technologies Lab at Cornell Tech.

It surfaces metadata on posts. Most useful to me is "This person posted more than 50 times yesterday."

It recasts a post like the one pictured. It reminds me to look at their profile and figure out if they are a real person, and are they terminally online, or engagement farming, or what. Then I might block/mute because I don't need people like that in my lifeworld.
