#Bridgy does a lot of valuable stuff for the Open Web. I have no doubt that @snarfed.org and @quillmatiq are among the Good Guys. #BridgyFed was supposed to link ActivityPub and ATproto without being attached to any particular server on either side. But by being too connected to Bluesky in particular, Bridgy is tainted by their cryptobros policies. There's more - like Blacksky and NorthSky.

Love seeing interest in bridging on Forkiverse! As Olivia noted, we have a 7-day waiting period for new users to avoid spam accounts. But, we trust the good folks on the Forkiverse, so we're going to exempt the instance from that waiting period 🙂
We'll let you know when you should be good to go!

Great news that forkiverse accounts are going to have their 7-day waiting period waived for bridging. Shows what a cool little instance this is, it's reputation precedes it ✨

@olivia @fed.brid.gy you gotta follow this on blue sky first @ap.brid.gy
@brettpeary @fed.brid.gy thanks!!! I have followed both accounts now in the forkiverse and bsky but I haven't received the follow backs so not sure if it's working. I also turned on bridging from the bridgy UI for bsky but can't do it there for this account yet as it's not 7 days old yet.
i'll dive into the docs in more depth tomorrow I think.

Yess! 🙏 This should hopefully made bridging threads with back-and-forth replies between B/M accounts more reliable 🎉

While I was lying in the hammock yesterday (clicking on my iPhone), I started thinking about the current state of the "Twitter diaspora", the cross-posting, bridging and separation… and I ended up with this blog post 😅
TLDR: let's try to settle on the open networks, Bluesky & Fedi, let's connect them well, and let's move away from Twitter.

@coop I see that the #Bridgy system to share posts between the Fediverse and Bluesky now allows server admins to opt-in for their instance (I don't know if that would still let individuals opt-out).

Is this something we want to consider for #CoSocialCa ? I'm in favour of using Bridgy personally, though I wouldn't want to force others if they preferred not to use it. How do other members of our community feel about it?
