Bridgy Fed’s Bluesky integration is now in beta, and makes it possible to connect your account from the Fediverse to Bluesky, and vice versa.
There’s still some quirks, and every bridged account has to opt in to it, but it’s a promising moment for people that want to communicate across networks.
I guess bridging with bluesky currently this does not make much sense to lemmy users?
As I understand it, Lemmy users do not have public messages, so no contextless posts like on Mastodon or Bluesky. On the other hand BridgyFed does not support communities, as a community cannot follow it.
So the way I have been using federation via ActivityHub, following communities and posting from mastodon, cannot be done from bluesky.
I still dont understand why we need bluesky.
Out of context, “I still dont understand why we need bluesky” sounds like something an oil executive would say. In context, I completely agree.
It’s not ideal but it is in place to accept the normie Twitter refugees as Twitter turns into an alt-right propaganda platform run by a shitty AI that promotes false stories.
