It has been a quiet few weeks on TrueFans. But we are also going to push live today our new BlueSky integration.

Now you can auto publish your listening activity, comments etc. to your BlueSky account. You choose what verbs we should publish and then authorise your BlueSky account and we will do the rest.

It means anyone following your BlueSky account will see your podcast listening or comments. #discovery.

We already do this with X and Mastodon.

We need to separate identity from servers in the ActivityPub world. It's time. I should be able to have a single identity and use it with lots of servers from Mastodon to Lemmy and beyond.

Then, various instances could reflect different communities with different people in them, different features and policies.

This also would elegantly solve the "instance selection paralysis" in @tchambers 's Deadly Fediverse UX sin #1.

Fortunately @benpate is starting to assemble people to solve this.

Hi @j12t @tchambers @benpate,
isn't #discovery without #webfinger (hostnames and dns in effect) a #fallacy and thus #centralisation in disguise?
