"An important step toward a more interoperable “fediverse” — the broader network of decentralized social media apps like Mastodon, Bluesky and others — has been achieved." Ryan's come to the rescue with Bridgy once again. #Fediverse https://werd.io/202...

Ideally it wouldn't be an opt-in - I think this kind of bridge is incredibly useful in its own right. I know it's been fraught on the Mastodon side because of Bluesky's provenance and former relationship to both Twitter and Jack Dorsey. I personally don't see the issue at all: the more the merrier.
I don't think the issue is primarily Bluesky's provenance or Jack's former involvement, I think it's that Bluesky's got different norms (everything's public, everything's searchable) and the abuse scenarios haven't yet been analyzed. Opt-in prioritizes everybody's safety over the convenience of the people who don't see any issue. So while the conversation was kind of rocky, the discussions actually led to a good outcome. I wrote about this a bit in https://privacy.thenexus.today/consent-for-fediverse-developers/

Yeah, it's an interesting example of how the links between the networks are now dense enough that it's in many ways a single network. I did some polls a while ago about different reactions to Bridgy Fed and the Mostr bridge - https://infosec.exchange/@thenexusofprivacy/112152860364679419
