   @Maholmire Then what's the point? The whole point of decentralized social media is to _not_ be walled off.

     @erlend It's not that hard to just build a bridge. The biggest problem with this community is talk and talk and talk and talk. How about 20mg of Adderall and just build the damn bridge.

     What if Bluesky doesn't want to be connected to the rest of the Fediverse? You would see a lot of feet shuffling if they want to keep their illusion of exclusivity.

     A simple #ActivityPub <-> #Bluesky interop MVP I don’t see mentioned a lot is the ability to fully oEmbed an apub/atproto post on its opposite platform. This would allow for a kind of quote-posting across networks.

     If that could somehow be combined with a WebMention to inform me that my apub post has been shared elsewhere and vice versa, we’d have significantly greater cross-border connectivity than the status quo.

     A Bluesky dev has responded with interest:
