Bluesky integrates with Mastodon better than Threads does at this point. I have bidirectional conversations with mastodon users, with notifications, using a bridge called BridgyFed. I can follow Mastodon users on Bluesky. I can’t with Threads.

How seamless is it ? Any daily problems ? Can you show a link to a conversation made this way ?

I bridged my bluesky account, if you're on mastodon and want to talk to me here, you're welcome to. Not sure if you need to opt-in on the mastodon side to be bridged to bluesky.

I think you can opt-in here? https://fed.brid.gy/bsky/jamesmunns.com/followers

I mean, Meta’s ActivityPub integration is one-way on public profiles. I think even Facebook used to allow you to get RSS feeds of your friends’ updates in the early days. Threads’s lip-service towards AP is barely better than that.

I have hard time believing Meta since both Facebook and Instagram are not open to public. But time will tell.
