3/3 I do hope that more people will consider bridging their accounts. It is really nice to be able to communicate with people on other platforms without being locked into to a particular service. It benefits everyone. To bridge a Mastodon account to Bluesky, just follow @bsky.brid.gy. To bridge a Bluesky account to Mastodon, just follow @ap.brid.gy. It's that easy! More information here:

Lifehacker · Use 'Bridgy Fed' to Connect Mastodon and BlueskyUsers on Mastodon can't really talk to users on Bluesky, both of which are increasingly popular alternatives to X. It wasn't possible before Bridgy Fed, anyway. This is a beta service that makes it possible for Bluesky and Fediverse-compatible applications, such as Mastodon, to interact.

Tengo un #blueskybridge con @bsky.brid.gy de mi cuenta de Mastodon que replica en #bluesky todo lo que publico en #Mastodon.

Queridas gentes de #Mastodon os pregunto, si alguien me contesta a mis réplicas allí ¿Yo me puedo enterar de alguna forma? ¿O el que me vea allí replicado ya debe saber que tiene que venir a Mastodon a contestarme? Tengo un poco de lío con eso 🧵🧵🧵

(Si me lees desde #bluesky contéstame algo, a ver si me entero de alguna manera, please)

Die Fedi Bridge ist mir viel zu umständlich, ich habe deshalb zusätzlich noch einen BueSky Account eingerichtet für meine Freunde, obwohl mir Mastodon viel sympathischer ist.

Allein schon die erste Frage bei BlueSky, bevor ich überhaupt losgelegt habe, ging gleich wieder um den Algorithmus. Da bin ich eigentlich schon bedient gewesen! Aber tja, was habe ich erwartet. Ich bleibe definitiv hier in diesem kleinen, unbeugsamen Dorf. Internet Rückzugsort, klein und fein.

For anyone asking about why I use the Fediverse over Bluesky.

I use the Fediverse because of a few reasons;

1. The people and software are more customizable and can be self hosted.

2. Bluesky was originally the idea of making Twitter more decentralized but turned into it's own project after lots of money from big tech (and is still getting lots of money put into it)

3. AT Protocol vs ActivityPub Protocol. Personally I don't really care either way but when ActivityPub is built as a standard by the same organization for HTML & CSS then yeah ActivityPub it is.

4. The usernames, The usernames on Bluesky is cool till you think oh, I have a few people that I want using the same Instance / domain making you have to make new subdomains for the usernames, Just go with the email like layout Fedi software has, it's simple and it just like email.

5. Instances, The fediverse allows anyone to set up there own server with whatever Fediverse software and still connect with others. Bluesky is one software and most people are on one instance making it another centralized platform that just wants to look decentralized.

6. Ownership of followers, due to point number 5 if you get banned or want to move away from Bluesky you can't. With the Fediverse you own your following allowing you to move your followers to your own instance or just another one if you wanted a change.

Even with all of this I still cross-post my posts via
@bsky.brid.gy@bsky.brid.gy as it gives me no disadvantage.

Friends, does anyone know if the folks on #bluesky have to do something else than follow the bridge account for a #blueskybridge? for some reason I can find one person from here, but not the others. They all followed the respective acount as stated in the docs. Since I can follow that one person from two instances, and the others from none, I feel something is missing?
People can find me just fine.
