   @atomicpoet bridgy and bridgy fed are different services for different purposes. Here's bridgy fed.

   https://fed.brid.gy/

   And the docs on how to use it

   https://fed.brid.gy/docs

   Bridgy is for static websites that don't "federate" naturally. BridgyFed is BlueSky/Mastodon. Hope this helps.🙏

     So I just tried opting into #BridgyFed (https://brid.gy/mastodon/@atomicpoet@atomicpoet.org).

     I found it confusing. For one thing, it asks me for my Mastodon account. Though Akkoma uses Mastodon’s API, not all sites recognize this nor support it—I don’t know if BridgyFed would reject.

     Secondly, it’s not clear how to opt in. I think I opted in but there was nothing to say “Congrats! People from #Bluesky can see you!”

     Also, how do I receive #Bluesky posts? That’s not apparent to me.

     • Bridgy Fed for Bluesky

     @atomicpoet @fediversenews

     To enable and opt-in you follow this account: @bsky.brid.gy
     That will start mirroring and federate your ActivityPub account over the ATProtocol and assign a DID.

     Then the counterpart for BlueSky you follow:
     https://bsky.app/profile/ap.brid.gy
     And it will start mirroring your ATProtocol account as an ActivityPub account.

     AT to AP seems more seamless since AP has more features. Truncating long posts for example looks ugly. The plan is to thread them eventually.
