Bridgy Fed's Bluesky integration is now in beta, and makes it possible to connect your account from the Fediverse to Bluesky, and vice versa.

There's still some quirks, and every bridged account has to opt in to it, but it's a promising moment for people that want to communicate across networks.

Bluesky is growing rapidly while ActivityPub growth is stagnating. I expect BS to grow beyond AP this year. People I used to follow on Mastodon have moved over to Bluesky, so I had to create an account there.

Personally, I like the ability to follow people who don't necessarily know how to install Linux. I'm glad techies seem to slowly move towards ActivityPub related services, but the general public doesn't seem all that interested. Plus, federation between services is the whole point of the fediverse!
