@dansup A penny's worth of thought you didn't ask for: If I were engineering something like PixelFed/Loops, I would build in Bluesky integration. I think it would be better if ActivityPub/Fediverse won and possibly dangerous if Bluesky wins, but I think Bluesky integration is what (if I were hypothetically in your shoes) my users would want.
With loops *specifically*, I'd worry a *little* that at some future date bsky.social would start demanding money from me/my users for continued federation.
