Posted by jpluimers on 2025/11/21

I wonder what has changed since this November 2024 article: [Wayback/Archive] All of Bluesky’s Features and How to Use Them

Via a response on me asking about moderation lists: [Wayback/Archive] John Kraal: “Deze pagina had wat basic info. Het is wel gewoon vertrouwen delegeren aan een willekeurige ander dus ga er niet blind op :-) …” — Bluesky

Bridgy Fed – bridges to/from BlueSky, Fediverse (including Mastodon) and many web-sites

Posted by jpluimers on 2025/01/29

I bumped into [Wayback/Archive] Bridgy Fed a while ago. The highlights:

Source is written in Python and HTML. It is available from [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – snarfed/bridgy-fed: 🌉 A bridge between decentralized social network protocols.

The blog post re-introducing it: [Wayback/Archive] Re-introducing Bridgy Fed | snarfed.org.

There is docs too: [Wayback/Archive] Bridgy Fed: docs

Bridgy Fed is a kind of a spin-off from the longer existing [Wayback/Archive] Bridgy which has documentation at [Wayback/Archive] About – Bridgy and source code at [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – snarfed/bridgy: 📣 Connects your web site to social media. Likes, retweets, mentions, cross-posting, and more….
