Today, we're launching a feature that a number of Bridgy Fed users have been asking for: notifications for unbridged interactions. You can learn more about how we've done this while also preserving the privacy of the unbridged user in our latest blog post: blog.anew.social/launch-dm-no...

I've been paying for Bridgy Fed myself, out of pocket, since the beginning. I'm happy to, and I'll continue to, but it's not cheap. We have big ideas and plans for the future, and funding is our main blocker. Please help if you can!

Today, we're launching the first Beta of Bounce, a tool that lets you migrate your social graph across protocols! We got such a positive response from our announcement, and we're so excited for folks to try it out. Here's what you need to know when you Bounce: blog.anew.social/bounce-beta-...

New status update! We have big projects and features cooking, but there’s still lots of good stuff in here: broader fediverse delivery, fix for replies (etc) that occasionally don’t make it to Bluesky, web UI improvements, account links, fediverse interop fixes, and more. Enjoy!

Got another new post! Bridging identity with account links. They’re a simple, modular way to connect your various accounts and posts across the open social web. Bridgy Fed supports them, and we’d love to see other apps and platforms adopt them too. Feedback is welcome. And support us on Patreon!

New blog post! Bridging vs cross-posting. They’re similar, but bridged conversations tend to be more unified across networks, while cross-posting ends up more fragmented. Feedback is welcome! And friendly reminder, if you appreciate what you do here, feel free to check out our Patreon!

Two big launches today 🚀 You can now change your bridging settings on the Bridgy Fed website for your Bluesky, Mastodon, and Pixelfed accounts (Threads soon as well). We're also launching our Patreon today! We're currently fully self-funded, so we appreciate all of your support 🫶🏼

Hi everyone! Time for a Bridgy Fed status update. We have a lot of new features and bug fixes to announce since the last time, so here we go! * Added a web-based UI for enabling and configuring the bridge for your accounts. * Added support for fediverse split domain mode, ie when your […]

Hi all! We never got into the habit of posting here regularly, but we’re going to start now. We have things to tell you! Bridgy Fed updates, new projects, other news. We don’t plan to post often, maybe once a week or so at most, but feel free to unfollow if you want, your account will keep bridging.

Hi all! We had some downtime for Bluesky => fediverse last night, starting 10:15p PT, and fediverse => Bluesky this morning 7-10a PT ish. We've worked through the backlog and should be back to normal now. Sorry for the trouble!

Pro tip: you can find a bridged fediverse user by searching for their address (eg @[email protected]) or profile URL (eg https://mastodon.social/@Gargron) here in Bluesky and then clicking the People tab. No need to figure out their translated Bluesky handle. Try it!

Finally managed to optimize our firehose processing from ~200 events/s up to 3-4k/s. Bluesky => fediverse bridging backlog is down from its high of 3d to just 18h now, should be caught up and back to realtime in another 5h or so. Thanks for your patience, all, apologies again for the delay!

Bridgy Fed is struggling to handle the recent flood of new Bluesky users. 10-20x usage increase, wow! Fediverse => Bluesky is still bridging ok, but Bluesky => fediverse is well over a day behind. It'll take me some time to optimize it enough to handle the new load. Apologies for the delay!
