@chris @fediversenews @user8e8f87c @allen099 @proximacentauri @Snowshadow @Gargron Isn’t this an example of the Fediverse working exactly as designed? Anybody who really objects to it can just block it. I don’t understand why they’re trying to get the rest of us to do it too – it’s their decision, but it’s not necessarily mine or anyone else’s

@dogzilla @chris @fediversenews @allen099 @proximacentauri @Snowshadow @Gargron Yes. Implement the AP protocol and you are part of it; then anybody can decide to block you. That’s how it works. I really hope @snarfed will just implement it.
(Nice profile picture btw! 🖤❤️)

  @user8e8f87c @snarfed @Gargron @proximacentauri @chris @allen099 @Snowshadow @dogzilla you missed the point of what a bridge is if you're saying you hope they implement it... A bridge isn't some web scraper, it's a translator between protocols. It speaks the AP protocol and one side and the AT protocol on the other.

    @shiri @user8e8f87c @snarfed @Gargron @proximacentauri @chris @Snowshadow @dogzilla I had messaged @snarfed.org to ask about opting out and Ryan couldn’t have been any more respectful. He’s also looking at a way to make it opt in (https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy-fed/issues/835#issuecomment-1942046208)
    I apologized for being part of the heat and look forward to supporting Ryan’s work when possible.

    @allen099 man, that issue is one hell of a dumpster fire!
