On the topic of Bluesky stats, I just learned that blocks are effectively public via the API, so there's a hall of shame ranking the most blocked users on the site: https://vqv.app/blocks.html

A lot of Brazilians there. I guess it makes sense that they are a large portion of the user-base after Twitter got banned.

I wonder what the backstory to two different Brazilian Taylor Swift fan accounts getting onto the most blocked list is...

Probably no fault of the feed, so not really a hall of shame. People you follow repost the feeds because they want to share with the world, and the posts end up in your timeline. You block them if you are not interested or if it is overwhelming, without having to unfollow anyone.
