So confused that skybridge is now getting all the media attention lol. Its been around for over a year and hasnt been updated for 3 months. It works fine, its just that nobody actually bothered to use it. Not really clear how 800 dollars is going to make a difference here.
They couldve just checked the repo lol.
Federate, you cowards!
Unlike Threads, there’s people on BlueSky I actually want to follow.
They should have been giving their money to Bridgy Fed, which is working to bridge the actual content of social media rather than the app APIs.
Well, actually, I would much rather Bridgy remains independent from Dorsey’s blood money. Bluesky should just enable federation on a large scale so that it’ll actually be possible to build services around it. Right now they cap federated instances at ten users, which is a complete joke.
i believe they’ve endorsed bridge fed before; i’m not sure what the legalities of grants are and/if bridge fed asked for it
They are federating since February
…or BlueSky could stop being lame af and integrate activitypub.
except atproto solves a ton of problems that activitypub refuse to fix, especially around portability
ActivityPub doesn’t refuse to fix them, it’s just not that simple. Solutions have been worked on for a while.
Much cheaper if somebody else does it for you 🧠 By the power of opensource!
Talking about that, can Lemmy users now check Mastodon ? I’d be curious to try it out although I don’t know who to follow really
You mean from your Lemmy account? Some things federate between Mastodon and Lemmy but I’m not sure if you can follow people
