    Oh thats interesting! So you can keep all your followers + who you follow in theory. Thats nice.

    I love that it has a ci job too: https://github.com/snarfed/bounce

    This is what true federation should look like, the service being just a way to communicate for people not the end all be all. People over platforms.

    Must be nice to start a centrally controlled social network call it decentralized and then just let other people not on the company payroll do all the work for you.

      It is actually decentralized though? You can host your own pds and relay for pretty cheap now.

        So how many people are doing that? I doubt more then 5% of their users are actually using a pds.

        How many times do we have to watch venture capitalists enshittify services before people learn. Do you really think bluesky doesnt have plans to extract every drop of ad revenue and data harvesting at some point, decentralization doesnt work with that business model, sure its fine now in the honeymoon phase but wait till Jack decides ita time to cash out.

    As long as my socks still smell like fresh breeze, and don’t cling to my sweaters, then whatever.

    I didn’t knew about Bridgy Fed but isn’t that kind of creating a bot and duplicating profiles? I guess is better than nothing but it reminds me a bit of the app Surf which connects the fediverse with youtube and other stuff and while sounds good in practice I wonder if it makes people less willing to switch to the Fediverse because you don’t need to anymore.
