Hi all! I finally got another big bit of Bridgy Fed interop working earlier today: bridging Bluesky replies, likes, and reposts into the fediverse. (Only the Bluesky federation sandbox, not real users, since federation is still months away.)
Here are example screenshots:
Lots more bug fixes, cleanup, and testing to do, but it’s nice to get this far.
Beyond development, I’m also starting to ramp up outreach a bit. The IndieWeb and Bluesky communities have been supportive so far, and the fediverse admins and community representatives I’ve approached have been generally positive, but I need to talk to more people. Now is the right time, when I still have months to hear and incorporate feedback before Bluesky federates and I’m able to ship Bridgy Fed’s Bluesky support.
Until next time!

Yes, this is positive. What I want specifically is this:
This is similar to how I am on OFTC normally but Matrix people can reach me at the bridge on
@_oftc_sandra:matrix.organd those comments show up over on my OFTC account and I don’t even have to notice they’re on Matrix.I’m not in a hurry to start following people who are on AT 🤷🏻♀️ even though that might be fun down the line.
I’m scared AT will be way more toxic and twitterlike since they deliberately are designing for an algo-driven world/global timeline which is the opposite of the bubble-coziness we have here on Fedi.
