Is that why bluesky closed my account? How ignorant of me that I couldn’t realize someone personally blocked me but not the bluesky.

I was talking to some other people about books in general. Someone shared lost of accounts which you can follow I checked the accounts and saw that most are from sci-fi writers and publishers. So, I clicked follow all kind of a thing which let you follow everyone on the shared list. And afterwards my account was banned by bluesky. I told them what happened but they didn’t respond and I didn’t try again.
