   Hey @tek, I was considering bridging my account with bsky, but noticed @bsky.brid.gy@bsky.brid.gy is not reachable from freeradical.zone, and I wondered if it was explicitly defederated / banned for some particular reason, or is it just an oversight (?).

     @tanfonto That’s deliberate. Bridgy opted everyone in without asking, and the people here voted overwhelmingly to block it.

     @tek @tanfonto Just following up, it may be explicitly opt-in on the fedi side at least now through following the bridge account.

     Would want to make sure that's confirmed before removing the block, though.

     @tanfonto @edd I hear that. The usual analogy is it’s like email: you can get an account whenever but then still email someone on another server. Use Outlook at work and still want to mail your friend who uses iCloud? No problem!

     @edd @tek I probably wouldn't care about either, if it wasn't about a group of ex-twitter friends who found fedi too convoluted

     @tek @tanfonto As an aside, I still think a centralized service is a rather silly method to do bridging compared to a bridge on a given instance. But one definitely exists and the other maybe doesn't so 🤷

     @tek @edd yeah, I get it, and I'm comfortable with it. I've been here since 2022. Unfortunately it's still a bit too geeky for some, and bsky isn't

     @tanfonto @edd I just posted this on main, but:

     > If your fediverse username has _ (underscore) or ~ (tilde) characters, they're converted to - (dash) characters. For example, @a_b~c@my.social is bridged into Bluesky as @a-b-c.my.social.ap.brid.gy.

     They’re bound and determined to make this as janky as possible. 🤦♂️

     @tek @edd one more thing, it would seem mastodon.com.pl is defederated; did they misbehave in the past?

     @tanfonto @edd They’re not suspended from our end. Nearly all (maybe really all? I forget) of our blocks are at https://freeradical.zone/about.

     @tek @tanfonto Searching for @mobi@mastodon.com.pl (the admin) is tossing a 503 with message "Remote data could not be fetched". Might be something with how the two instances are set up?

     @edd @tanfonto I got a 404. That can also mean no one here follows them, that we’re not yet federated.

     @tanfonto @edd I’m on the road at the moment. It could be something needs to be restarted or rebooted. I’ll check when I get home.

     @edd @tek we spent some time investigating, and tl;dr; there has to be something filtering the traffic on the network level (provider, vps, blacklists, a pigeon sitting on a cable etc), folks from mastodon.com.pl can't follow anyone here despite no explicit block on the fedi level

     @edd @tanfonto It looks like some software bug. If I search for "mastodon.com.pl" then I see a list of users, with m0bi at the top. I can click to view his profile.
