Yeah, I’m going off about Bluesky, again.
Having spent some time on Cohost, the sadly departed social networking site that purposefully didn’t display engagement statistics for anything and finding that much healthier for my state of mind, I had ended up making a user style for Bluesky that did the same thing.
If you’re not sure how to use a user style, check out my blog post on user stylesheets from 2023.
This code is provided as-is and is unlikely to receive future updates.
Personally, I’ve stopped using Bluesky entirely. If you still want to see my online rambles over there, follow the bridged fediverse account instead.
Update: Never mind, I’ve ended up back on Bluesky again.
Updates
- 2026-08-05: This is now hosted as a GitHub Gist. If your user style manager supports it, clicking this link will install the style and allow future updates to be applied automatically without you having to come back here.
- 2025-06-03: Updated to also remove follower and following counts on the popups that appear when hovering over a user name.
